postgreSQL-8.0.1 configure --enable-thread-safety with icc-8.1 on RHEL-AS3 Itanium-2 gives error

Hi,

I am trying to build postgresql-8.0.1 with icc-8.1.028 on a Linux
RHEL AS3 SMP Itanium2 machine and I get an error as follows when I run
configure --enable-thread-safety as follows-

The complete log is online at http://www.cse.psu.edu/~kalsi/files2/config.log

The same works when I use gcc(3.2.3) and configure also works with
icc-8.1 if I dont use --enable-thread-safety!

Can anybody see if I am doing it wrong? Any suggestions for resolving
this error?

Thanks,
