Compiler problem while compiling seplib-6.5.3 - "internal error: backend signals"

[afel]

Hi.

I'm currently set to compile and install a tool named "SEPlib" version 6.5.3. And everything seems to work fine, until I get a rather cryptic error code from the Intel compiler: "internal error: backend signals", and on the next line this error: "icc: error #10014: problem during multi-file optimization compilation (code 4)".

I have tryied to Google the problem, and I don't think it's related to the tool which I'm compiling. Below I've attached a snippet of the compiling output.

I am using the Intel v10 "em64t" compiler, on a RedHat Enterprise Linux release 4. The "uname -a" output this:

Linux st-lccapp01 2.6.9-34.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Feb 24 16:56:28 EST 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This kind of annoying error was more prevalent in the 10.0 compiler than in current versions. If you have a standard license, register it at https://registrationcenter.intel.com and download an update, at least one within the last 6 months. 11.0 should be available by mid-month.

Thanks for the reply tim18.

I've now instructued the IT-department to download and install the latest update for the v10 compiler. Hopefully this would work.
