Given the major version number increase, I imagine this will involve revbumping and rebuilding all dependents again.

Yikes:

​http://site.icu-project.org/download/59:

There are major changes for ICU4C that require changes in projects using ICU. See below for details.

  • ICU4C now uses and requires C++11 language features and libraries.
  • ICU4C has also moved to char16_t as the type for UTF-16. This is a breaking change. Please see the detail section below.

Seems like updating to this version will break a ton of stuff on non-C++11 platforms (OS X <= 10.8) so I don't think we should update yet. I can patch to address the CVEs though.
