Just a note on this:  C++ and templates need more support from Libtool,
not just with this compiler.  There have been other bug reports (with
Portland's pgcc, for example).  icc surely suffers as well.

I'd really appreciate if someone knowledgeable would look into this.
Otherwise, I plan to eventually do this, but it looks like it could
be more than a little work, I don't have much time ATM.
