Hmm, I don't think this calculation is correct.  This would result
in level of opregion over its limit.  For example, assume the level
max = 100, so total max = 25500.  Passing level=150 here will be:

	lbpc = 150 * 0xff / 25500 = 1.5 = 1
	level = 150 / 1 = 150, which is over limit.

More worse, lbpc can be zero when level is below 100 in the case
above...
