Hi Masanori,
#204805 is fixed now. #256770 is a new bug. But the problem may not be with the Intel compiler. Why are symbols multiply defined in libc.a?? It seems a mistake.
The Intel compiler works on RedHat and SuSE.
Also, you can download the compiler for free, from this website:
http://developer.intel.com/software/products/compilers/clin/noncom.htm
(but you must register).
Good luck!

A fix is in the works, apparently.
#204805 is reported in 2.3.2, but now we have 2.3.2.ds1. Is this bug still alive?
BTW, there's two bugs about intel C/C++: #204805, #256770. Both bugs are reported by you. I guess the newer version fix #204805, but it's still broken (#256770). I wonder why debian glibc obstruct compilation with intel C/C++. Is it designed only for RedHat's glibc?
Commercial applications are difficult to check because we cannot get easily. I know the speed difference between gcc and intel cc. It's currently different significantly in the high performance numerical computation. So it's valuable to investigate on Debian IA-64. Duraid, please check this bug more.
