See:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/8632

For what it's worth, I agree with those arguments.  I have had the
same reasons to avoid ICU in the past.

I've had several bugs reported to me for LibIDN which turned out to be
bugs in ICU (last time a few days ago), so I also have greater
confidence in Bruno's code, and will try to start using some of it in
LibIDN.
