I'm running out of time today to get to the bottom of this, so if anyone else wants to help out, great. If not, I'll see if I can resume testing tomorrow and get a minimal test case that exposes the compiler bug, as well as try and isolate ways to work around it.
I'm on a Linux x86_64 machine with icc (ICC) 10.0 20070426.
$ ./gnulib-tool --with-tests --create-testdir --dir=testdir frexp-nolibm
$ cd testdir
$ ./configure CC=icc CFLAGS=
$ make check
...
../../gltests/test-frexp.c:103: assertion failed

I hate it when a heisenbug disappears because of the mere act of adding
debugging hooks. :(
