It may not be too hard to add Intel support.  I can help you
do it if you want to try.  There is an initial bit of work to
teach the gccxml front end about the compiler, but after that
most of the work is just in constructing system header patches
to get through gccxml's GCC 4.2 parser.

It *should* be picking up msvc9 from the registry.
What error message do you get?

The code is in "GCC_XML/GXFront/gxConfiguration.cxx".
