I just dicovered that for some unknown reason the INTELCMP library was 
missing from the master version.  I have fixed that.  Try doing

perl install.pl -n

over again.  The libraries should now download.  I do not know how this 
happened - our setup should prevent this.

Sorry for not looking sooner.
