Oh! I totally misunderstood the situation. I thought the problem was the 
missing compiler.

All what I do with python and the intel fortran compiler is to compile 
numpy. Just in case it helps you, I set my environment from the console 
by running a bat file with the following content (I am on 64 bit but you 
could easily tailor it to your needs):

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Setup\WindowsSdkVer.exe" 
-version:v7.0
call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 
9.0\VC\bin\vcvars64.bat"
call "C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Intel\ComposerXE-2011\bin\ipsxe-comp-vars.bat" intel64 vs2008shell
rem call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 
9.0\VC\bin\vcvars64"
rem call "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin\setenv.cmd" 
/x64 /Release
set PATH=C:\Python27;C:\Python27\Scripts;%PATH%
set PATH="C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Intel\ComposerXE-2011\redist\intel64\mkl";"C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Intel\ComposerXE-2011\mkl\lib\intel64";%PATH%

Perhaps that helps you to set a working environment. All what I can tell 
you is that with that environment, if I run "python f2py.py -c 
--help-fcompiler" it finds the intel compiler.

Good luck,

Armando
