Hi Mukul, We're already planning on adding a subset of ICU to Xerces to provide support for Unicode normalization so it seems we're on the same page with the PsychoPath team.
Richard Kelly has looked [1] into modularization of ICU and was able to separate out a normalizer module and compile it on JDK 1.3. It's a dependency we would ship in an upcoming release containing the work Richard's been doing this summer for GSoC on Unicode normalization checking and normalization. Thanks.
