Comparing Linux C and C++ Compilers: Benchmarks and Analysis

[Natros]

"This change caused quite a bit of annoyance when trying to run 8.1 on
my Gentoo-based machines, because Gentoo's GCC is somehow incompatible
with ICC's expectations. I'm investigating this further; for now, just
be aware that Intel's 8.1 compiler requires a "standard" GCC install."

You can use Dinkumware libraries with icc -cxxlib-icc, so you don't
need a "standard" gcc install. On my gentoo I exported the
CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

$ export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/include/g++-v3:/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i6
86-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/include/g++-v3/i686-pc-linux-gnu
