All of the sudden, the November release of the C++ compiler refuses
to compile anything.  It terminates during compilation with the 
following:

[c:\src\os]icc /Fd /Ti /Tdp test.C

test.C (0) : fatal error EDC4019: Error occurred while opening intermediate file
  RBCOMM(395).

  [c:\src\os]

It had been working fine.  I cannot think what might have suddenly caused
this behaviour.  I intend to reinstall the development kit and see what
happens, however I would like to know what the error means so I can prevent
whatever happened from happening again.  Incidently, the compilation also
litters the directory I have been compiling in with hidden files named
as:

ic0023AAA.W
ic0023AAA.WH
ic0023AAA.WI

Presumably this is related to the above error.

My system:

November PDK installed on an HPFS file system.
