PathScale is working on making our OpenSolaris port production ready. Hopefully by the end of the year we'll be able to build, boot and have our amd64/Intel64 codebase available under an open source license. This will include the PathScale EKO compiler, OpenMP, optimized math libraries, debugger and some other things. Alpha binaries are forthcoming in March if anyone would like to help test please contact me off list or ping me in irc. #pathscale irc.freenode.net Best, Christopher
