In my opinion, this issue is not worth another release of any kind. I
just wanted to report a minor annoyance in case it was indicative of
something more serious in the configuration. Since the build is
probably fine, just let the improvements show up whenever they are
available for a regular release. Meanwhile, maybe someone can let the
Autoconf developers know what is happening with icc.
