Huh? Can you unfold how the nucleosynthesis data doesn't fit dark 
matter? Last time I checked the literature (fall last year) there was a 
fairly decent parameter window of the nuclei/DM parameter space, where 
lithium abundance was used as a sensitive constraint on the properties 
of DM.

I thought the gravitational lensing studies ruled out black hole halos 
fairly strongly.
