Odds are better that it's an oblate star with a lot of space junk around it, but it's hard to tell the two apart with the observations we have so far. They're hoping to tell if there's interesting radio coming from it within the next week, and are dedicating 6mos observation to it to try and figure out what's orbiting it.
There's a thread about it in Geeks Rule.
