It could matter for ports, I do not know if it matters for parts in
src. The commercial license is also the only way that we could get icc
installed on machines in the FreeBSD cluster (if there's interest to
have another compiler *for FreeBSD development* to check the source
against... the warnng and error messages are better that those of gcc,
I do not know how they compare to clang).
Bye,
