I was able to run code compiled with icc 13 on Fedora 17, but as I don't
have Intel Compiler v13 on this machine I can't check it now.

Please check if it works for you with gcc 4.7.2 (which is the default) and
let me know if you succeed. The performance difference between icc and gcc
on your processor should be negligible with GPU runs and at most 5-10% with
CPU-only runs.

As the issue is quite annoying, I'll try to have a look later, probably
after the beta is out.

Cheers,
Sz.
