I don't think so. the #pragma is intel-specific, so it should unaffect you
if you are using anything other than icc.  plus, i'd rather not disable
genuine features based on a bug in a single compiler.

(If you note I actually increased the optimization level in general from -O2
to -O3, but added an icc pragma to disable optimization in that single
translation unit.)
