Not really easily, yet.
I see them both fail because they claim a numa-related function
seems to be missing, but I can't see anything peculiar about that function
(getMemoryStats), like monkeypatching or any hack.

The function was added sufficiently long ago, so it should not be related
to package versions.

Moreover, this doesn't reproduce on my F21 laptop.

I'll need to dig a bit more.
