Re: [PATCH] Getting ICU to build on OS X

Please also send a copy of this to the ICU developers. (See the ICU website/documentation.) We need to try and make as few changes as possible to ICU, or it will become a _nightmare_ to maintain. By making sure our local changes get sent upstreadm it will keep our life simpler in the future.

Status of IMCC Examples & A Win32 API Call Example

Hi, Went to look in languages/imcc/examples the other day and noticed there were only a few examples in there, and that sample.imc doesn't even work. Is there a reason for a lack of examples or should I have a crack at writing some? BTW, tonight I managed to get Parrot to call a few Win32 APIs s

Disassembler issues and URM
