This is an approved src.alt for 447.dealII in CPU2006 v1.1.

It will allow compilation of 447.dealII benchmark with the Apache
standard C++ Library version 4.2.1, which can be downloaded from
http://stdcxx.apache.org/.

Note: although it is possible that the src.alt might be helpful with 
later versions of the Apache C++ standard library, SPEC has not tested 
with any later versions.

To apply the src.alt, unpack the tar file in the top level of the CPU2006
directory.  The following sequence of commands should accomplish this:

$ /bin/sh
$ cd <cpu2006 dir>
$ . ./shrc
$ go top
$ specbzip2 -dc <src.alt tarball> | spectar -xvf -

Please replace the items in angle brackets ( <> ) as appropriate.

To have the src.alt applied during compilation, please add the following
stanza to your config file:

447.dealII:
srcalt=apache_stdcxx_4_2_1

This src.alt makes performance neutral portability-related
changes to 447.dealII source files by adding include directives.

Please address any questions about this src.alt to cpu2006support@spec.org.
