Use of Intel compiler on Linux

A German computer magazine (c't 7/2003) tested the Intel C/C++ compiler
suite on Linux.  Among the open-source projects they tried, PostgreSQL and
KDE were the only ones they couldn't get to compile at all.

I tried it out and made two simple changes (see below) to be able to
compile it.  If no one objects, I'll apply them.
