No problems whatsoever with a bic. I certainly don't prefer them, but butane is butane (except when you are filling a good lighter, then there's the different number of times its refined to make sure it doesn't clog things up). Zippos will transfer that nasty Zippo smell to the cigar. And when using a match, be sure to let it burn for a second or two so that you make sure the sulfur is gone.
