Comment(by from.macports@…):

 I observe this error when building texlive_base as a dependency of
 lilypond.  I am on Mac OS X 10.5.8 (i.e. ''not'' Snow Leopard).

 I do appear to have ICU:
 {{{
 % port installed icu texlive_base
 The following ports are currently installed:
   icu @4.2.1_1 (active)
 }}}

 Turning off ICU, cleaning texlive_base, and reinstalling texlive_base
 appears to succeed:
 {{{
 sudo port deactivate icu
 Password:

 % sudo port clean texlive_base
 --->  Cleaning texlive_base

 --->  Computing dependencies for texlive_base

 --->  Installing texlive_base @2007_7+no_x11
 --->  Activating texlive_base @2007_7+no_x11
 --->  Cleaning texlive_base
 }}}

 Thus I it looks to me (though I know very little about all these ports)
 like '''texlive_base @2007_7+no_x11''' does have some kind of conflict
 with '''icu @4.2.1_1''' on Mac OS X 10.5.8.

 This was the tail end of stdout for my failing build (while ICU was
 activated):
