Hi Andreas, David,

Thanks  for your prompt  reaction! You  encouraged me  to try  out the
Intel compiler  suite. We installed icc  & ifc, most of  the time took
fiddling with flexlm.
 
For my C code I had to change the header sequence: 

-X     -I$(IA32ROOT)/include     -I/usr/X11/include     -I/usr/include
 -I$(IA32ROOT)/substitute_headers

The only flaw  was that on linux rpc/xdr.h uses  stdint.h, which I had
to include manually into the code.

For Fortran,  the compiler gives  quite a lot  of warnings, I  had one
portability issue with a static array bound.


C++ I didn't try yet.

uname -a gives
Linux neumann 2.2.18-SMP #1 SMP Sat Jan 20 07:41:17 GMT 2001 i686 unknown,
the machine runs Suse 7.1.


After that, I compiled  a PDE simulation library and  a fuel cell simulator
containing OpenGL, mixed Fortran/C, lua extension language, and everything
was remarkable smooth. 

No benchmarks yet, but the code appears to be correct (-O3).


Best regards
Juergen
