This was my fault.  I wasn't paying attention closely to issues with
other compilers.  I've had the attached patch in my local tree for
some time, but haven't had a chance to test it with ICC.  Can you
confirm it fixes the issues you're seeing?

Be careful not to define GCC-specific optimizations in the non-GCC
case.
