known-bad memory access pattern. Specifically, a NULL pointer is
passed in a system call as part of a probe to figure out which
affinity API this system has. We know it's a NULL and we did it on

Bring in a new version of PLPA (v1.2b2) with some new capabilities for
offline processors and mapping of the Nth processor/socket/core to its
corresponding Linux processor/socket/core ID.
(Sorry for the configure change in the middle of the day, folks -- I
need it to be able to continue to integrate paffinity changes for
#1435...)

Ticket 1435 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1435
Changes paffinity interface to use a cpu mask for available/preferred cpus
rather than the current coarse grained paffinity that lets the OS choose
which processor.
Macros for setting and clearing masks are provided.
Solaris and windows changes have not been made. Solaris subdirectory has some
suggested changes - however the relevant man pages for the Solaris 10 APIs
have some ambiguity regarding order in which one create and sets a processor
set. As we did not have access to a solaris 10 machine we could not test to
see the correct way to do the work under solaris.
