It is possible to access ICU by downloading it from

Surely the "correct" approach would be to download ICU, compile it,
and include your own compiled binary with your application?
It doesn't appear to be that easy...
Libicucore is 1.3 Mb, icudt32b.dat is 9.3 Mb. For a downloadable
application, it may be a bit too much. Also, I haven't compared Apple's
ICU-6.2.4 to the stock ICU 3.2, but there could be some subtle differences to
consider (Apple's version may be incompatible with earlier OS releases, but
have additional important bugfixes).
So, I'd certainly follow Deborah's advice, unless I had a requirement to
support 10.2, or needed unstable ICU APIs.
