Axel,
  Yeah, there are a few static link flags I ought to be able to try to
prevent the Intel compilers from causing runtime issues, but there may still
be a few interesting compatability things to solve between the SGI Linux
distro and the Suse machine I'm currently building on.. I'll probably
get new builds done with the static libs in a couple days.

  John
