Nope. Symlinking shlibs of different ABI versions together is the wrong answer. There's a reason the ABI version number was bumped, and it indicates the new shlib is not compatible with the old one. Formally, the correct fix is: # portupgrade -rf icu-\* or the equivalent in whatever ports management software you prefer. However this is pretty unfortunate as icu is a basic component that a large number of packages depend upon. Expect to spend a long time compiling. Oh, and it's a good idea to update as the latest icu fixes some security problems.
