Re: [Boost-users] [FileSystem] Linker Error on OS X with ICC - common symbols not allowed with MH_DYLIB

I also tried this same code on a Linux X_64 system using Intel 10.1.008 
and the code does actually compile without complaint. So maybe 
something specific to OS X is sneaking in the build? Or assumptions 
about icc NOT being on OS X?

Thanks for any help.
