webkit-gtk depends on ICU for the unicode, but ICU is not safe when build and
target system owns different endian. ICU's community is not responsive to make
a patch for this, so glib is used as work around here.

I've merged this however I'm not 100% happy with this as the final fix.
I'd ask that:
a) The bug remains open (re-prioritised appropriately) about the
remaining issues that still exist in ICU
b) We add something to the ICU recipe which stops it building when the
endianess isn't correct (host matches target) so nobody can built it and
have it not work.
Why not accept my patch that provides a working dataset? I doubt
that you're ever going to get the ICU folks interested to the point
of fixing this correctly and this solves the problem without the
[IMO undesirable] side effect of using different libraries on
different architectures (for webkit-gtk).
