Comment (by ballapete):

 GCC 10.4 has built manually (within 40 hours), the compilation log is
 evaluated and I can send two eMails soon. In the meantime I selfupdated
 port on PPC Tiger and upgraded gawk. All installed ports are according to
 "stock" since I upgraded Python3 to Python 3.10. But icu still wants
 Python 2.7, and I do not want it any more. It's not secure, it's outdated,
 it's past perfect. Therefore I cannot try to build icu again.

 On Big Sur icu has no dependencies. Why do such exist on Tiger? (Besides
 GCC 7?) On Big Sur only Python 3 exists – why is this not working or
 sufficient on Tiger?
