The IP of some of our i18n files is unclear and someone (you?) pointed
out that they have been copied from ICU. We should clean that up. But
that is not related to the ICU external tarball.

The copyright is not unclear, it's the same as in current ICU, see for

http://source.icu-project.org/repos/icu/icu/trunk/source/data/brkitr/char.txt
What makes this appear unclear is that ICU does not include any license
information in individual source files, for the ICU license see

Hmm.. I thought we could use the same headers
internally since it's clear ICU will be mandatory.
