What exactly is wrong with

#if (defined(_MSC_VER) && _MSV_VER <= 1200) || BOOST_INTEL_CXX_VERSION < 700
  #define BOOST_NO_INTRINSIC_WCHAR_T
#endif

(like it was before) in intel.hpp??

Dave said before that you set BOOST_NO_INTRINSIC_WCHAR_T for MSVC 6
_automatically_ in Boost.Build, so the change above would yield the same
result IMHO.

However, you are right if you say (what you didn't) that one cannot turn on
support for a native wchar_t in boost again (after specifying -Zc:wchar_t with
Intel).
