BTW, just to close out this thread on the public list --- Andrew found
out that the problem goes away if one removes "-parallel" from the list
of compiler options. That makes it a pretty blatant compiler bug, and
one that we've not seen elsewhere, so it's probably specific to the
(old) icc version that Jeremy is running on this buildfarm animal.

Given that no other buildfarm members are showing a problem, I don't
intend to revert the configure change. Jeremy should update his icc
or remove the -parallel switch on that animal.
