Do you know any problems related specifically to ICE38 and ICE64?

Perhaps because programmers as a species have been indoctrinated that warnings serve a purpose, and should not be ignored?  If the compiler cannot warn you about anything, then at least you don't have to worry about those particular problems.  Other problems are always waiting in the wings, of course.

I typically do per-machine installs and don't remember the last time I've done a per-user install.  I'm doing one now that has nearly 10k files harvested by Heat.  My destination directory structure is under LocalAppDataFolder.

Normally I ignore ICE warnings and fix all ICE errors.  I know the tricks to suppress ICE38, ICE64 et al when dealing with user profile data.  Is it really needed? My install and uninstall seem to be working just fine.  What would be the concern over ignoring these?
