Awesome, thanks for the heads up. Those should be useful changes for PS. :)

Daniel Glassey added the ability to load & build transliterators that were not part of the ICU resource bundle in 2003, allowing use of stock ICU that is included with most distros along with our additional transliterators. But it hasn't been maintained or updated since 2003, and only worked on systems building with autotools. So that is all now removed (both the out of date copies of transliterators and the code for loading them).

Before that, I'll pursue getting our transliterators incorporated into CLDR (and thus stock ICU). We would only need to reactivate this code if our data were rejected by Unicode.
