Oslat is broken now after the numa rework.  Frankly I'm surprised it's broken
so quickly with just a few commits and actually with no new feature at all but
pure cleanups.  Again I still appreciate all your work on this but I don't
really appreciate a lot for having it broken..

Now I tried to fix it but it seems you don't really like my fix.

Would you propose yours instead?  I would be more than glad if your version is
better then I'm happy to drop mine.  Otherwise I'll still prefer to have this
patch merged to unbreak it first.

Thanks,
