Hi, Cliff:

I have been using/testing 2.0.3-rc2 for a while.  I have accumulated a
couple of patches which I've been remiss for not posting.  They sort of
got pushed way down on my stack.  One involves cleaning up what I
perceived as bitmap leaks, but included some unrelated cleanup.  I've
meant to separate them out.  One actually addresses the Cpus_allowed
parsing that Brice fixed.  

A while ago I sent a copy to Kornilios Kourtis [off list] to see if he
was interested in moving them.  He did make some mods, which I've been
too distracted to check out :(, but KK was also too busy to dedicate
much time.  I can try to spend some time tomorrow reviewing Kornilios'
version and my other patches [nothing serious, as I recall], and send
them on--before the weekend, I would hope.  

Or I could send you what I have as a heads up and work with you to
finish testing/cleanup/...  Let me know your preference.

Apologies for letting this slide,
Lee
