available compiler versions generated bogus machine code trying to
compile new crypto/des/cfb_enc.c. Secondly, 8th version defines
__GNUC__ macro, but fails to compile *some* inline assembler correctly.
Note that all versions of icc implement MSC-like _lrot[rl] intrinsic,
which is used now instead of offensive asm. Finally, unnecessary linker
dependencies are eliminated. Most notably dependency from libirc.a
caused trouble at application start-up, if libcrypto.so is linked with
-Bsymbolic (which it is).
