I wonder what Intel could do: the compiler can be integrated in more than one
VS version on the same machine, that's why you can't speak about an
"installation on" a particular version.

So IMO, the only possibility for setting the _MSC_VER macro is interpreting
the /QvcXX switches on the command line.

I think that just the default value is wrong: it should be 1310 instead of
1200.

What do you think?
