R-2.11.1_1: reference to icu-4.6 not updated?

[Giuseppe Pagnoni]

Dear all,

I recently got an error trying to compile the port math/R-2.11.1_1 on a
FreeBSD 8.1-amd64 with a port tree up-to-date as of today.  This is the last
snippet of the build output with the error:

It seems to me that the build specs for R haven't been updated to reflect
the latest version of icu (4.6, already installed on this system).  Is that
correct?  Does anybody know a quick fix for this (perhaps edit
/etc/libmap.conf ??  I heard though that this is not generally a good
idea...)

Thanks for any help or suggestion

very best
