Comment (by Roland Haas):

I can compile fine with Intel 17 on Blue Waters if I use a modern enough C++ library. However if I force it to use gcc 4.3 by using --gxx-name then I get the same error that you see:

COMPILING Carpet/LoopControl/src/loopcontrol.cc
/mnt/a/u/staff/rhaas/ET_Next/arrangements/Carpet/LoopControl/src/loopcontrol.cc(70): error: function call must have a constant value in a constant expression
      lc_random.max() - lc_random.min() + 1;
                ^

/mnt/a--
