So one thing we could do is add a mem_hops field and always set that,
even for the old stuff. The old stuff will not know about that field and
ignore the bits, but new stuff will then not need as many LVL bits.

Of course, we then get into the problem of how many bits of hops we
need.. Power guys ?

Still wondering what the point of REM_NA is.. can you explain?
