[ Impact ]

 * Users will notice that some software that depends on IGC will be less
stable

[ Test Plan ]

 * Intel has done testing on their end and assures us that this is a
necessary build flag for their software stack to work as intended.

[ Where problems could occur ]

>From our contact at Intel: 
"Without the build flag, IGC will not link to translator at all [...] it uses 
its own internal translator, which is wrong, So this option enables it to link 
to the distro's translator"

So while this is a fix, it does carry the inherent risk that we are
switching to a different translator, which will change the behaviors of
any software that uses the translator.
