I see. Obviously, using the system ICU library is the best way to go 
-- it will greatly reduce the size of our downloads.

But the problem now shifts to PathToVComponents, no? We can't change 
the location of the VComponents folder without having our apps crash. 
Did you hard-link to libraries in this file? Is that why my project 
crashes even before Valentina.Init (without a crash log)?
