I think that's the big issue -- performance.
For example, there can be large performance differences between gcc 2.95
and 3.2. I'm assuming that icc, being a vendor-supported compiler, will
have even better performance (although I have no empirical data to back
that up). This becomes critical for numerical libraries, not just MPI and
PVM libraries.
