The bjam build script doesn't currently care what value HAVE_ICU is set to, 
if the variable is set then ICU support is enabled, so to build without ICU 
support just omit the -sHAVE_ICU option from the command line.

I can reproduce the problem with VC7 and ICU support turned on.  The 
immediate errors are easy enough to fix, but I've come up against some other 
problems that are harder to fix with this compiler - basically it's too 
broken to do what I need it to do, I'm sure there is a fix, but it eludes me 
at present. I'll come back to you if I happen to have a brainwave at get it 
working!
