Thanks Petr.  I've included your patch in numactl-2.0.8-rc4.tar.gz
( ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/libnuma/download/ )


To all interested in libnuma and numactl:

These are the changes since the 2.0.7, released in April, 2011:

2.0.8-rc1
- 110818 Checking of sucessful allocations in numademo (Petr Holasek)
2.0.8-rc2
- 110823 Fix of numactl (--touch) warnings and man page (Cliff W.) 2.0.8-rc3
- 111214 Add "same" nodemask alias to numactl (Andi Kleen)
- 111214 Add constructors for numa_init/exit (Andi Kleen)
- 111214 Add use of glibc syscall stub where possible (Andi Kleen)
- 111214 Fix regress1 to show all the problems before exiting (Andi Kleen)
- 111214 Add IO affinity support (Andi Kleen)

- 120106 Warnings in numa_node_to_cpus_v1 to be more verbose (Petr Holasek)
- 120216 Fix for numademo: msize check for ptrchase test (Petr Holasek)

Version 2.0.8 should probably be released soon.  If you have any plans in hand
or in mind for fixes or enhancements, please send them or let me know that
they are coming.

Any testing of the current (2.0.8-rc4) would also be appreciated.
