I'm really not sure about supporting icc.
It may be hard to get a license for icc.
And it is not available as a simple package.
It means we are adding code that the community cannot test.
I think we should rely on free compilers only.

PS: I'm not even talking about the suspicious verification done
by the installers of the suites including icc.
