Well, the problem is that nr_ites should never be 1, as it effectively
means "don't use any bit to index the ITE". And it also means we cannot
have an ITT that's not a strict power of two.

So while this is indeed a bug, the root of the problem is elsewhere.

I'll cook a fix, thanks for the report.
