didn’t cause any problems with Leopard and beyond within MacPorts, that
the ICU developers would accept it more readily.

> When I'm looking for patches to commit, I usually see it the other way
around: I'm more likely to commit a patch if the developers have already
signed off on it. I did apply it locally and verify that it still builds
on Mountain Lion, but since I'm not a C programmer and I'm not familiar
with the icu source code, I don't feel totally confident committing these
changes. Could you report the problem and your patch to the developers so
that we can get their input?
This problem had already been reported by someone else as [http://bugs
.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/9367 ICU ticket 9367]. I’ve added a comment
to that ticket directing them here to this patch. Considering the number
of outstanding tickets there (as well as the age of many of them), I don’t
know what the likelihood might be of getting their input on this patch in
a timely fashion.
