I do not think so; but (assuming current Intel toolsets are not running 
in strict mode) I think that it could be beneficial to have one more 
toolset for Intel, recent version, running in strict mode. The more 
compilers see the code, the better chance to find a bug. But this opens 
question - who will run regression tests for this toolset?
