Open64 is the compiler maintained by AMD, here are the links: http://developer.amd.com/tools/cpu-development/x86-open64-compiler-suite/ and the Community Maintained one http://www.open64.net/home.html
I would love to know how to install it. The instructions from this link: http://www.open64.net/documentation/installing-open64-424/building-the-compiler.html didn't work nor the instructions from the HOWTO-INSTALL-OPEN64 file, which are the same…
It returns error 127 and then error 2.

I got the Open64 compiler built on my 64-bit system running Ubuntu 11.10 by following these steps that I pieced together from a few places:
Make sure you have prerequisites installed:
Make sure sh is linked to bash and not dash:
and select 'No'.
Make sure that awk is linked to mawk:
Fix looking for the crt libraries in the wrong locations by making symbolic links:
Download the Open64 source and uncompress:
Now make another directory inside this for building the compiler
Decide where you want to install, and run the configure script. Replace /opt/open64/5.0 with where you want to install open64. If you want to use the default location, leave off the --prefix argument.
Now fix an unrecognized option error:
and delete or comment out the last line containing:
Build the compiler (assuming an 8-core machine, -j 6 seems reasonable)
