Subject: INTEL C++ compiler doesn't work for computerchess?

Hello,

I installed intel c++ compiler 5.0 version (evaluation).

Lucky i have an evaluation version and didn't buy it for 399 US dollar,
because if i try to compile code from me, then code with heavy
pointer usage is giving big big internal compiler error code 4.

So it doens't even produce an executable for me from ansi-c source!
Really incredible but true, it can't create executable out of complex
and bugfree pointer code.

Do other persons have similar experiences here with intel c++ compiler?

The previous release i did not have any problems with but it was
generating slower code as visual c++ 6.0 did (but only 1% slower so
quite fast actually as no other compiler was getting close to that).

Note also the SP5 of visual c++ didn't improve for me speed of visual c++ 6.0
instead it creates a bit bigger executable but the speed of it isn't any
faster!

Best Regards,
Vincent
