using version 2015 of the compiler to build for mic does not seem to work on RHEL 6

I am trying to compile for both MIC and the host, and am hitting this error: x86_64-k1om-linux-ld: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by x86_64-k1om-linux-ld) x86_64-k1om-linux-ld: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /opt/mpss/3.4/sysroots/x86_64-mpsssdk-linux/usr/lib/k1om-mpss-linux/../libz.so.1) GLIBC on RHEL 6 is 2.12.x. For reference, I am attempting to statically compile NAMD as described here: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/namd-for-intel-xeon-phi-coproc...
