Thanks so much for the clarification, Doug.

So my fear stand corrected. Intel compilers are marginalized. Not that there
is anything wrong with that, but the documentation (especially bjam's) give
the impression that boost can cover all major platforms.
The reality however shows a different picture.

If you have suggestion on how to approach this problem please do let me
know.
