[SPEC is just particular versions of a set of widely used freeware C
applications. If you don't need for your results to be perfectly
comparable with SPEC numbers, you can just use the various programs in
their freeware form. Like all benchmarks, of course, SPEC doesn't
really tell you anything other than how a compiler does with those
particular programs, and like most other popular benchmarks, compilers
have been tuned to do well on exactly the code that SPEC contains.
