1) a hint, if you want to verify a config step:

$ perl Configure.pl --verbose-step=ICU

2) verify that you link against the correct libicu

$ nm -u parrot | grep isdigit
u_isdigit_3_2

3) we could probably lift the restriction that we link with c++
I replaced LINK = c++ with LINK = cc in the Makefile and it works.

4) icu related config options and icu.pl can be cleaned now

5) if you move $parrot/icu e.g. to $parrot/_icu you can run

$ per Configure.pl --nomanicheck

Please verify the build on Windows platforms,
thanks

Looks good on Windows XP, VC++ 7.1. F<t/src/manifest.t> complains,
quite expectedly.

Build OK with MinGW.
