For what it is worth: 1. I created the set_mempolicy.2, get_mempolicy.2, and mbind.2 pages in man-pages based on versions taken from the numa package, written by Andi Kleen. I did this on the rationale that man-pages should document all system calls. 2. As far as I am aware, the man-pages versions of these pages contain all of the information that was in the original 'numa' pages, and some extra information that I added after consulting with Andi. 3. I've asked Andi if man-pages could take over "ownership" of those three pages (but _not_ numa.3). He agreed (a little reluctantly), and I believe that these three pages will be removed in a future version of the numa pakage.
