if you have icu 61 you have to "patch" your sword build/package script, 
by adding -DU_USING_ICU_NAMESPACE=1 to both CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS 
variables before running configure (with appropriate flags) and make and 
make install-strip
this can be safely applied when you have ICU 60 or earlier (tested with 
56.1 , 60 and 61)
if you update/change icu library, don't forget  to recompile both sword, 
and xiphos/bibletime/a.n.other program you use that uses sword.
