The static link question seems simple enough. I know that Mozilla uses ICU, and I think OpenOffice does too. Both of them don't have a runtime dependancy on it (or else it would be available for redhat, right?). This means they either static link it or imported the sources into their app.
Their license is an X type license. I'm only distributing, not merging, so there is no "derived work" issues here. There are documentation issues, perhaps.
