Thanks for the reply. I guess it's out of my knowledge area, so you
say the intrusive library should use Boost.Config, which would solve
the problem right ? So I guess I get nothing out of going the long
support road at intel then..

I just see many of these errors in different libraries. I saw some
advice on intel support forums, where similar problems were solved by
setting some gcc compiler defines, so I assumed intel were configured
incorrectly.

On windows it does not compile at all with intel 11.1, which is a
surprise to me.

This is really a show-stopper for me, I can now only build my 32 bit
linux with intel on 64 bit linux+win+win 32 bit I have to use gcc or
msvc, which is significantly slower for my heavy math application.
