Dear carlo,
QE configure script uses the default system archiver (ar) when using ifort compiler instead of intel's own wrapper (xiar); unluckily interprocedural optimization (IPO) does not work with ar.

You have two possible solutions:
1. disable IPO (by setting the -noipo in F90FLAGS in file make.sys)
2. use xiar instead of ar (by setting the AR variable to xiar in file make.sys)

Personally I don't think IPO gives a substantial performance increase, hence I just disable it most of the time (furthermore it's disabled by default on most ifort versions).

cheers
