Trying to build nodejs using Intel C++ Compiler. Not going so well. First I had an issue very similar to https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-c-compiler/topic/733662 related to ICU and UTF8. I fixed it with -Qoption,cpp,--unicode_source_kind,"UTF-8" (is a utf-8 flag coming soon?)
Now I've hit errors building the v8 directory. Note first that Visual C++ compiler works fine in building nodejs. My issues are best illustrated by actually running vcbuild.bat from the nodejs github repository (to get a Visual Studio solution file), and then opening up the sln generated, converting it to Intel C++, and building it.
Some errors I've been getting

Note that towards the end of the above snippet is where the topic title "error: assertion failed..." comes from.
Then there are a bunch of repeat errors for 18> above, but there is also this:
18> C:\Github\node\deps\v8\src\x64\assembler-x64.h(120): error : access violation 18> Register::ListOf<rax, rcx, rdx, 18> ^
