Hi Ken,
GNU's libunistring might be an alternative to ICU.
http://www.gnu.org/software/libunistring/
Hm, I just looked at it; it's not terrible, is it? What do people
think about creating a dependency on this library? I'm not sure how
mature it is, though.
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libunistring.git/log/README has it
going back to 2009, with some recent effort. Bruno has been dabbling in
Unicode for a long time, http://www.haible.de/bruno/packages.html and
wrote the Unicode HOWTO, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Unicode-HOWTO.html
On an Ubuntu system I've access to, package gettext depends on package
libunistring0, so it could be getting some exercise.
Cheers, Ralph.
