Hi,
IMO, the highest priority for others tackling 3 and 4 is to build
with the latest intel compilers (which looks like 18.0.2).
More detailed comments below.

Note that 18.0.2 is the latest (i used 18.0.0). My guess on the 18.0.0
major failures is a change in optimization policy on Intel's part.
We have been using 18.0.0 for a couple of months at OSC w/o problems,
eg, quantum espresso and other sci. apps. But I'm skeptical of x.0.0
versions in general.
I plan to test with other older versions.

The pgi 17.10.0 results which include a number of seg faults are
probably par. Whether lurking bugs in our code or thiers, pgi has
frequently been more touchy. It might be prudent to mention these
issues in a README, KNOWN_FAILURES, or the like.
I plan to test with other older versions.
