Description
When trying to build Qt-5.13.1 with Intel compilers I would get the following error:
>> 82 /dev/shm/gpjohnsn/spack-stage-qt-5.13.1-szivpolegsx2j6hslwuyqkudeufbfhaw/spack-src/qtbase/include/QtCore/5.1

87 { return __builtin_add_overflow(v1, v2, r); }
This is due to the version of GCC that was loaded, gcc-4.8.5 in this case, which does not have support for overflow builtins. I worked around this with the following patch:

that checks the version of GCC with or without an Intel compiler present, as well as verifying that the version of the Intel compiler supports overflow builtins when present. This should apply to 5.14 as well. Another part of this is that the platform will have to be set to intel-icc or the following error is seen:

if linux-g++ is used.
