Chuck,

From the A343 holy book. For an aircraft at MLW, flaps full, medium autobrakes, 1/2inch standing water. (From the book: Autoland landing distance with autobrake)

Factored LDR, 1/2 inch water, 10kts tail wind = 2722m
With 4 reversers operating= 2477m

Thats from landing threshold to point of stop.

Unfactored for same conditions as above: (from book:the actual landing distance to come to a complete stop from a point 50' above the landing surface. No margin is included in this distance).

2063m (this is with operating reversers). 1664m nil wind.

(Used 10kts tail as I am too lazy to work out the 5kt factor, used max landing weight as most limiting case)

9000' x 0.305= 2745m. Don't know what the distance beyond the glidepath was.
