Phylogenetic tree for 16S rRNA with whole taxonomy included

Is there available a precomputed phylogenetic tree for 16S rRNA gene that has taxonomy information included for all levels not just the leaves? In principle I'm looking for a tree that has looks like (Escherichia(Escherichia coli(Ec K12, Ec O167))) but with branch lengths. I have found a few small ones, but I'm looking for the largest possible (RDP has an alignment with 1.3M sequences, GG 300K).

You can find a manually curated tree in SILVA with almost 500,000 tips: http://www.arb-silva.de/download/arb-files/

Yes, SILVA... I should probably mention that I hope I could avoid fighting with ARB software (badly written, crashes, requires weird versions of libraries). SILVA's official exports do not contain large trees.

There's a development version of ARB that is supposedly a lot better than the stable old one and used by basically everyone at Max Planck.

Finally it worked (uff, half of the time spent looking for compatible linux version). Thanks a lot for the pointer - export went smoothly.

No comments on the quality. See the readme file for how it was made.

Thanks! It looks interesting, but the GG taxonomy collapses at genus level (see gg_13_5_taxonomy.txt). I would need to create subtrees for all species/strains and attach them to the master tree at the leaves (quite possibly I will have to do it that way).
