Well, I assume that it runs on an Itanium Montecito cores - here we have the 
same issue. AFAIR there was a discussion in February on the list that this 
will not be fixed so soon. Anyways - intel fortran compilers on itanium 
probably will give you a pretty good performance compared to assembly 
nb-kernels.
