Since nobody responded to my question up to now I had a look at the parrot
source. Just to remind you what I was asking:
Eventough parrot is compiled with icu support this does not show up when I
query parrot for it (i.e. # /usr/lib/parrot-0.2.3/parrot parrot-config.imc
libs).
So I looked at config/auto/gmp.pl to compare it against config/gen/icu.pl
gmp.pl has a line:
Configure::Data->add(' ', 'libs', '-lgmp');
but in icu.pl the line is:
Configure::Data->add(' ', ccflags => "-I $icuheaders");
So the parameter for 'libs' is not set eventhough I think it should be.
Has this just been forgotten or is there a real reason against adding
"-licuuc" (besides breaking mod_parrot) ?
