Hi,

this optimizes the case where no LSM is loaded and the (new) default 
capablities is used. These are not called via indirect calls but 
called as hardcoded calls and might thus be inlined; the price for
this is a conditional -- benchmarks done by hp showed this to be
beneficial (on ia64).

Enjoy,
