Comment (by varosi):

 Isn't it better if GHC could try to dynamically load this library (for
 -threaded) and if it didn't succeeded to fall back to non-NUMA at runtime?

 If software have to be distributed in binary form now it should have twice
 more versions for non-NUMA and for NUMA machines depending of what machine
 have the user. The same for GHC, now it should have non-NUMA and NUMA
 versions to be downloaded on haskell.org. Which is not good.
