As far as I understood, the original reason for not providing the
headers was that the C++ ABI was not stable and so a program linked
against ICU on one version of Mac OS X might not work on a
subsequent version (assuming it went and used the C++ API).
This is also true for the C API.
Well not quite. The C *API* might be non-binary-compatible if you
built ICU the wrong way, and some sections of it are certainly marked
as stable/unstable. But I was specifically talking about the Mac OS X
C++ *ABI*, which IIRC was still in flux when this question first
appeared.
Anyway, we're in danger of drifting off topic here.
Kind regards,
Alastair.
