Committed in r39803. Thanks. Do you think it would be better to make texlive_base depend on icu and patch so that it works with 3.8 (as it seems texlive 2007 expects icu < 3.4)?

I suppose it depends on how hard it is to patch texlive_base to work with icu.
I suspect it is not trivial (although I am not an expert).

As I understand it, texlive 2008 was recently released.
Perhaps if it fixes the problem, we should focus on the upgrade instead.
