About 160 are running either SL or SLC for ia64 right now, as far as we know. Please remember that SL3 for IA64 has been available for some time, and even SL41 is out [1]. Inside CERN, we have SLC43 as well [2], but wanted to discuss (thanks Troy!) whether releasing a non-CERNified version makes sense at all, given that we'd like to de-support this eventually.
