It's a good idea.
I'll do both: add k5 pass to all Jitrino.OPT configs and make EM use
opt.emconf by default.
So there will no additional configuration nor command line options!

I'm not sure what all this means, but if the last line means DRLVM
will run and pass its tests on a P3 straight out of the build, then
that's a +1 from me.

Are you going to post a new patch to this bug? Just so I know what to watch for.
