I think this could be the CONFIG_NR_CPUS patch that's causing this.
It makes the assumption that APICs are contiguously numbered,
so if you have them sparsely numbered, you could end up with some
of them being unused.

This would explain several similar bugs in bugzilla too.
For those that want to test, setting this option to 32 should
restore to the previous behaviour.
