Gnome Upgrade to 2.16 breaks due to ports/103610: portupgrade to icu 3.6 linker error

[Mikhail Teterin]

Hi, Stacey!

This problem occurs on FreeBSD-5, and is blamed (by the ICU developers) on the 
compiler.

You can build ICU with the gcc-4.x, or configure glib to not use ICU.

When the 6.2 port-freeze is over, I'll commit the work-around to the ICU port, 
which will build with gcc-4.x automatically on pre 6.1 versions of FreeBSD.

Yours,

	-mi
