Ouch, I did not even consider -DUSING_ICC_S_FILE. Now I see that the
-x86-64-gpu, etc. targets did not have it, but the -x86-gpu, etc. ones
did. Since we're now removing the uses of precompiled sse-intrinsics
from those targets, we should also remove -DUSING_ICC_S_FILE from them.
This is not done in the patch that I sent - please do it manually.
Thanks,
