Re: [Quantlib-dev] Null class bug on x64 targets

Some more ICC for Windows related issues showed up

1) BOOST_MSVC is not defined on IA-32, which prevents auto linking.
Including auto_link.hpp directly works.

2) The second issue is not caused directly by QuantLib, but it is good
to know about it.
Bjam compiles boost with _SECULRE_SCL=0 when ICC is used. But Visual
Studio's STL uses _SECULRE_SCL=1 by default and ICC relies  on Visual
Studio's implementation. QuantLib itself doesn't use any compiled
boost libraries, but the test suite links to boost unit test
framework, which is a compiled library. Inconsistent _SECULRE_SCL
values violate one definition rule and cause the test suite to fail or
even crash. To fix this issue one needs to recompile all libraries
using the same _SECULRE_SCL value.
