it looks like it still has the version numbers from your system ICU
stored somewhere... you need to re-run configure, perhaps pass
--without-system-icu and ensure that the config_host.mk doesn't include
anything related to your system ICU.

i've added it to icu/makefile.mk and pushed it to master

i'm not sure if adding a defined(__IBMC__) etc. is the right approach
but if it doesn't break anything...

you should try to update your ICU bug with the new patch as well, to get
upstream's opinion and hopefully a fixed next ICU version.
