thanks, done for me ... should show up tomorrow! and thanks for testing
these configurations!

The problems you are (probably) talking about are not caused by a
missing single-threaded runtime (these problems would be the same for
plain VC8 as well). It seems that either you on your machine or the
intel toolset in general has a problem with the _dynamic_ runtime as all
these tests fail:
