Hi,

I am trying to cross-compile Boost 1.44.0 for a powerpc on my Fedora 13 x86
workstation.

I have written a bash build script do this build.  It has worked fine for
previous version of boost.
i.e. 1.37.0, 1.40.0, 1.43.0
But when I tried to build 1.44.0 I get the following errors.

libs/regex/build/has_icu_test.cpp:12:30: error: unicode/uversion.h: No such
file or directory

Here is my build script:

I have seen that other people have had similar problems. See here.
http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2010/09/62265.php
But I have not been able to fix it.
Any ideas.

Thanks
