Ok. And now I remembered how to deal with this issue:
Add ifc specific options to the list in get_linker_so method
of the intel_ia32_fortran_compiler class. Let me know if it works,
send a patch and I'll commit it to CVS. If you could check this
patch also on building scipy then that would be really great:)
