omp declare simd support on phi

[Jamil_A_]

  Hi 

     I am trying to compile some code using the offload model but the compiler is failing with 

        internal error: bad pointer  

     when compiling host a function with pragma omp declare simd decoration.   This does not occur when I remove all pragma offloads (i.e. compiling for the host only)

     Is OMP 4 supported on the phi? and are there any work arounds?

 Setup:    

    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)

    icc version 15.0.0 Beta (gcc version 4.4.7 compatibility)

     MPSS 3.2.3  

    Thanks

 Jamil
