I'm not sure it's an ICC bug at all, even though the ICC guys recognised it. 
They're probably just being nice and want to get 100% compatibility with GCC, 
even bug-to-bug compatibility.

The file in question has:

// Force instantiation of template instances class.
// Please note this list is compiler dependent.

The V8 guys recognise they're doing something non-standard.

Anyway, this is the least of the problems. The current ICC version has a major 
parsing bug with the V8 source code that I reported but hasn't yet been 
solved. The bug report is apparently not public.
