I'm not aware of any that does. In general applications usually
only use the bare basics of NUMA API (if at all), the fancy stuff tends
to be more slideware.

If it's true then the correct place would be to fix the BIOS.

That's an incorrect statement. There are x86-64 boxes which
report correct NUMA distances.
