mbuf leakage  
Looking through the code for nw_pthread_reap(), I don't see any mechanism for freeing the cached mbufs that may be on 
the zone lists.  Am I missing something, or is this the responsibility of the user?  If the user is responsible for 
freeing the cached mbufs, what it the recommended procedure?

Yes, this looks like a bug.  I thing nw_pthread_reap() should do this,
