I asked about this many months ago and was informed that "-1" is a "standard 
error value" that I should expect from these APIs when NUMA is not present. 
Now we're saying I have to change my code again to handle a zero value?

Also not sure how to tell the difference between no NUMA, something running on 
socket zero, and something with multiple sockets. Seems like we need a bit of 
thought about how the NUMA APIs should behave overall.

Matthew.
