Comment (by cal@…):

 The ranlib problem might go away if you just try again after it failed for
 the first time. Of course, that's not a permanent solution, but it would
 provide another datapoint that might help in debugging.

 I think the icu linker command might fail even due to the correct -L
 argument because OS X' linker will always try to find dynamic libraries
 (`.dylibs`) in all paths first before attempting to link against static
 libraries and the firebird build probably builds `libicudata.a` in
 `extern/icu/source/lib`. Try adding `-search_paths_first` to the LDFLAGS
 (although according to the manpage this behaviour changed with Xcode >= 4,
 which you probably have).

 Which files matching `libicudata.*` are there in `extern/icu/source/lib`?
 What does `nm $file | grep icudt` print on them?
