It is likely a compiler bug, but where exactly does it hang? (you can 
attach a debugger to find out) mpq_canonicalize computes a gcd which 
mostly just forwards to hand-written asm in this small case. You can also 
try to follow the code with the debugger, except for the asm function, the 
rest should be fairly easy to understand. And then you'll have something 
to report to your compiler vendor...

Was the library also compiled with icc?

Btw, you forgot some of the info listed in:
