broken links in STREAM's page

Hi.

I found one broken link in:
        http://www.cs.virginia.edu/stream/
The link to the Linux version is:
    ftp://ftp.cs.virginias.edu/pub/stream/Contrib/MasonCabot/linux/stream_l
while it should be: ^
    ftp://ftp.cs.virginia.edu/pub/stream/Contrib/MasonCabot/linux/stream_l

Also, when I tried to execute it I got:
./stream_l: error in loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This is because my system only has more recent versions:
# cd /usr/lib ; ls -l libcstdc++* | cut -c55-
 libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.a
 libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so
 libstdc++-libc6.1-1.a.2 -> libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.a
 libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 -> libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so

You might want to make available a static linked version, if you want to
make it very easy to run.

Creating a "fake" link solved it:
/usr/lib # ln -s libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2

BTW, my results:

Your clock granularity/precision appears to be 1 microseconds.

(I have 7 such systems, so the following is the best line of each
computer.)

Similar systems, but with 550 MHz processors:

(Curiously only the Triad time is better on the 600 MHz. In the other
tests the 550 is faster.)
