Of course I can do that, just mentioning that Lenny isn't supported any more.
But I know, sometimes it is not possible to upgrade to Wheezy... 
Repo updated.

Are you sure, that libunistring-dev package is installed ?
I tried a fallback to gnulib code (if libunistring isn't installed) - but that 
introduces a bloat of ~200k (stripped) even with libunistring.

We should say libunistring 0.9.3+ is required.

I'll create a Lenny VM here for testing...

They offer an Alpine Linux docker image,
Travis-CI is an option (they have OSX images as well) and OpenCSW Solaris 
Build Plattform is available (I have an account there).
That is second priority for me right now, but comes next...
