If that's the case, would anyone (in particular, Steve, Tim or Tim) mind if we 
just made the default (for MSVC as well as ICC) /fp:strict?  It would be much 
easier to just change the global default than to try to either make it settable 
or to change it just when ICC is used.

As far as the segfault that this issue is actually about, compiling _sre.c with 
/Os seems to clear it up.  I believe Intel is looking into it deeper to 
determine whether it's an ICC bug or if there's something we should change in 
_sre.c.
