OK. I subconsciously ignored this mistake, and read it as "_lcore_id".

Is there some particular reason you can't register those non-EAL threads?

Maybe have two "spares" in case you find two new uses cases? :)

No, adding spares doesn't work, unless you rework the API and rename it 
to fit the new purpose of not only providing per-lcore id variables, but 
per-something-else.
