    The EULA attempted to stop disclosing benchmarks of .NET code, not 
C++ code. The most recent version of the EULA has replaced that with 
permission to disclose benchmarks of .NET code provided some conditions 
are met: full disclosure of benchmark code and environment; latest 
release of .NET; compliance with 'best practices'. Its still stupid as 
it would be in Microsoft's interest to encourage benchmarking .NET but 
not quite as stupid as before.
