Please don't be mistaken EKOPath != Open64 as already mentioned.  (In
some cases the difference could be huge or small.. all depends on how
much our code has diverged)

The EKOPath nightly is available to download if anyone wants to pull
and run benchmarks.  More important to us is real customer code
though.
