I've been wondering about this. I do have a dual-processor DS20 but the thing is so big, heavy and power hungry (plus IIRC there is something wrong with it) that I just use an AlphaServer 800 instead. But if an EV5 and an x86 can't exist in the same cluster then I guess I'll have to sort out the DS20 and just run it on special occasions.
