I'm not sure, either. More specifically, I'm not sure we'll handle
intel-linux-8.0 correctly. The dash would make sense of "linux" were just a
subvariant of <toolset>intel, but since intel on linux and windows has
different command line interface, I'm not sure having one toolset with two
subvariants makes sense.

As for icclinux vs. intellinux -- I think I'd prefer the first, but it's not
very important, IMO.
