Good info, great to know.
Then I guess I can omit that as an option and concentrate on charset UTF8.

Not that it probably matters for me anymore based on what you wrote above, but
for the record I tried that with both the original ICU and ICU for 52.1, both
gives:
"COLLATION ISO8859_1_UNICODE for CHARACTER SET ISO8859_1 is not defined"
Although I can see that it exists in fbintl.conf:
charset = ISO8859_1 {
intl_module = fbintl
collation = ISO8859_1
collation = ISO8859_1_UNICODE
...
}

Is there anything I can do here?
After looking a little more on this it seems that it is the last record that is
missing.

I read about MULTI-LEVEL in README.intl.txt and must confess that I'm not sure
of what that means.
However, I can't see any difference with my tests using it in either way.
Adriano, thanks for your time on this.
And judging by your comments I take it that the steps I had taken and described
in how to replace the ICU libraries was correct and sufficient?
