Ugh, I think you're right.  I misinterpreted the man page that mentions
that flags like MPOL_F_STATIC_NODES/RELATIVE_NODES are OR'd with the
mode, and instead dumped those flags into .. the flags field.

So the 'flags' argument it generates is crap, because I didn't add
any of the actual correct values.

I'll fix it up, though if it's currently finding bugs, you might want
to keep the current syscalls/mbind.c for now.
