Its not just a general's bonus thing as it only applies to that unit, not the whole army.
Doesnt happen all the time though, maybe its just one of the virtues which is bugged?
Can anyone else back this up?
I agree with this explanation. I get it quite often with high-valour generals. They tend to get the valour bonus given by the general to all the troops twice. It is really weird, as it doesn't even follow a set formula (or none that I can make sense of). Once I had a Turcoman Horse general at valour 13. I didn't really skirmish with the guy, I just charged at anything and everything.
