 Hi there!
 
 It did not work for me, even with the new knob - still complaining
 about ICU. I just noticed that the missing symbol mentions icu_3_814
 but I have icu-3.8.1.1 installed (I suspect that these are 2 different
 version numbers...) Where does the patch (or the new knob) get its
 version number from?
 
 Cheers
 Olivier
