I don't know of anyone porting BBV code, but it is true that the Alpha instruction decoder in M5 is bug-for-bug compatible with SimpleScalar, if you compile with the SS_COMPATIBLE_FP flag. We need(ed) that to be able to run SS EIO traces (not sure how much people use that feature anymore, but initially we used it a fair amount).
