Well, from the perspective of Python, what matters mostly is the
commonly used compilers (that is, gcc and MSVC). I doubt many people
compile Python with icc, honestly.

Same for CPU-specific tuning: I don't think we want to ship Python with
compiler flags which depend on the particular CPU being used.
