That SVN repository hasn't been touched in almost two years. It doesn't even
work with the current TPC-C datagen without editing the data files.

What drives me nuts trying to get these kits running is how they have so many
scripts running other scripts and they all depend on having an environment set
up with specific users, paths, and environment variables set.

Ideally it would just be a simple binary like pgbench which takes command-line
options to tell it what to do and can be run without setting up any special
environment.
