Frankly saying this will be not so easy task, John.

Deal is that we ALREADY use ICU 3.0,
But MacOS Panther still use 2.8.
I believe they will not be compatible.

Only OS X Tiger will get ICU 3.0


In ideal, I think we will try future redo to use only C API of ICU,
In this case, as point Apple engineer, we will get big chances to use SYSTEM
ICU libs. ALL libs I mean. He say that Apple do work on this with IBM to
polish ICU to allow such usage
