Went and had a look at the code that was failing.  This is
the fragement that fails:

#ifdef HWLOC_HAVE_MIGRATE_PAGES
    unsigned long *fullmask = malloc(max_os_index/HWLOC_BITS_PER_LONG *
sizeof(long));
    if (fullmask) {
      memset(fullmask, max_os_index/HWLOC_BITS_PER_LONG * sizeof(long),
0xf);
      err = migrate_pages(0, max_os_index+1, fullmask, linuxmask);
      free(fullmask);
    } else
      err = -1;
    if (err < 0 && (flags & HWLOC_MEMBIND_STRICT))
      goto out_with_mask;
#else

I can get the free(fullmask); to not fail if I comment out
the memset() and migrate_pages() calls.  If I just comment
out the migrate_pages() then it still fails so there's
something wrong in that calculation from the look of it.

Unfortunately I'm not much of a programmer! :-(

cheers,
Chris
