I thought ICU contained some C++ files. As to why we care, you might need different
libraries for c versus c++. For example, the Solaris c++ man page has this note:
By default, the CC driver passes the following -l options to ld:
-lC -lC_mtstubs -lm -lw -lcx -lc
There are likely other issues too, but that's the first one that comes to mind.
