Jim Warner 91d47123f2 library: finally circumvent libnuma memory leak <stat> 
Still unhappy with a minor memory leak associated with
libnuma, I experimented with omitting the dlclose that
was issued at module's end. For some reason which will
remain a mystery, the valgrind leak then went bye-bye.

So this patch just omits one use of dlclose and relies
on whatever kernel magic is at work to free the memory
when each process ends. We kept, however, the original
code (now commented-out) to serve as a future caution.

There remains one potential (but unlikely) dlclose use
near the original dlopen. But there will be no leak as
that 'numa_node_of_cpu' will not yet have been called.
This seems to be the culprit that triggers such leaks.

None of this libnuma shit would likely have come close
to hitting our fan had the numa developers provided us
with 'new' and 'unref' functions like our newlib does.
