Nick Clark referred to ICU.
Newbie that I am, I did not know what that abbreviation referred to.
So I acked the Parrot codebase and found only one place where ICU was
spelled out:
languages/dotnet/doc/building.pod
14:=item * ICU (International Components For Unicode), so Parrot can
handle the
15:UTF-16 strings used by .NET. Parrot must be built with ICU support.
That's insufficient. So I propose that the subsection in
Configure.pl's pod discussing ICU spell it out. Hence, the attached
one-line patch to Configure.pl.
