There was a bug in the cpu2000.py file where mcf (and several of the other
SPEC2k benchmarks) were getting the wrong input files.  From the list
archives, this is what I sent out:
gzip_source:  the second input should be '60', not '1'
mcf:  should get inp.in as argument, not mcf.in
parser:  needs ref.in on stdin
equake:  needs inp.in on stdin
facerec:  needs ref.in on stdin
lucas:  needs lucas2.in on stdin
sixtrack:  needs inp.in on stdin

This was as of Jan 7 of this year; I don't know if this got fixed in a more
recent version (or which version you're using).
