That piece of software (icc) was added by me in, IIRC, 2007 when the
PDF/A support was added.

The icc stuff is used to generate the PDF/A-1a sRGB color profile at 
build time, as I wrote in this README file:

http://opengrok.go-oo.org/xref/libs-extern/icc/

I don't think there is a --with-system-icc because icc it's not used at
run-time, only the generated profile is, included in the PDF generation 
logic.

As to find a way to change the includes, ATM I can't be of much help
since the patch changed from 2007 to now, and I didn't follow the patch
adaptation currently under way in LibO, that is, the one Thomas and
others are carrying on.
