Found via a WebmasterWorld thread, a Google AdSense Brasil thread has a note from Marcelo from the Google AdSense team that some Brazilian publishers won't be paid this month.
The translated version of what he said is:
Due to a problem in the payment process, some publishers will not be paid in February, but their gains have accrued and paid at the end of March. As some publishers may have seen, we send an email to all those affected about what happened. Please be advised that this was an exceptional occurrence, and not repeated.We appreciate your understanding and patience.
This has happened before with publishers both in the U.S. and outside of the U.S. It has also happened to mass numbers of publishers and individual publishers.
So if you do not get paid this month, this is why.
