Not really, it was just a shot in the dark. The thing is, if conv_python is
being run on the same source each time, it should give the same result. So I
suspect that something is changing the sources and that is what I'm trying
to track down. One of the build guys should know...

Hmmm..., I notice that there is a line break in line 18 of
scalartypes.inc.src that doesn't belong there. Could you fix that?

And the line number of the loop is 497, which is the loop before the one
with PREFIX defined. For some reason the parser is missing the  /**end
repeat**/ on line 509. Hmmm, try putting a blank line before it.

Just fishing here... Why that should happen with icc and not with gnu is a
mystery.
