I'm not sure why you got this error with SPEC.  I'd suggest that you 
make sure that:

1. You configured the LLVM source and LLVM object tree directories 
correctly (i.e. the --with-llvmsrc and --with-llvmobj options to the 
llvm-test configure script).

2. You correctly configured the location of SPEC with the 
--enable-spec2000 option to the llvm-test configure script.

3. That you are running the tests in your object tree, not your source 
tree (if your source tree and object trees are different).

All of these directories are recorded in various Makefiles in llvm-test, 
so they should be pretty easily to find.  I think all of them are in 
llvm-test/Makefile.config.

Simply cd into External/SPEC inside your object tree and type make.

Personally, I would use the llvm-test harness as it's the easiest to use 
to use if all you want is timing information and LLVM statistics. 
However, you have to make sure everything is configured correctly; 
otherwise, it just won't work.

I would check the three things I listed above (as it looks like a 
configuration error).  If that doesn't work, please email the list again 
and we'll take a closer look.
