I tried hard to find the why and where but no success , then I cleared all folders and extracted the source one more time and fired runConfigureICU.......and then gmake.....and bingo..........it got ahead of earlier problem but gave up for some "unsatisfied symbols".... I found those symbols in libstdc++.sl.6 , so I linked that file as "-lstdc++"........ I got over that error............but finally struck for some more unresolved symbols......
