 I went into this port and came up with the
 
  http://virtual-estates.net/port-stuff/icu.diff
 
 The diff does the following things:
  . adds the original koi8-u.ucm submitted by Andriy to files/;
  . makes it easier to add new encodings -- just drop the .ucm-file into files/
    and add another hunk to files/patch-convrtrs;
  . increases the chances of the port working on other BSDs
    (s/FreeBSD/${OPSYS}/);
  . fixes the port to use the correct CC, CXX, CFLAGS (files/patch-cc-flags);
  . enables the vendor's tests and runs them after the build (with LANG=C);
  . fixes the Ukrainian-locale descpription, so that the spell-out rules (%V);
    generate proper words for negative and fractional numbers (files/patch-uk);
  . updates the port to the version 3.0 -- released this summer.
 
 Andriy, can you, please, test the diff again gnutella et al?
 
 The port's maintainer is yet to respond Volker's e-mail a week ago, so we can 
 presume, he is too busy right now.
 
 However, the new version is 3.0 and to keep calling it icu2 seems wrong. Can 
 portmgr@, please, cast the neccessary spells (viz. UPDATING, MOVED, 
 repo-copy) to migrate devel/icu2 over to devel/icu (obsolete and unused by 
 anything)?
 
 Thanks! Yours,
 
  -mi
