As a workaround, simply, build the B2 itself with GCC,
which presumably is the default on most Linux systems,
by just ./bootstrap.sh

Then use intel-linux toolset to build Boost libraries
b2 --toolset=intel-linux

The two, building B2 and building Boost, are orthogonal actions,
so chances are Boost will build with intel-linux just fine.
