icu-sword now includes project files for Borland to build its 4
libraries:
common (low level Unicode stuff)
i18n (high level Unicode stuff)
layout (a complex script layout engine)
and ustdio (Unicode stdio)

The data still has to be built in VC++, and I'm really hoping this won't
turn out to be a problem.

In the process of modifying ICU to compile with Borland, I had to fix a
number of bugs and make some other changes.  The bug fixes may in some
cases make our library incompatible with the official version 1.8.1 of
ICU.  However, when 2.0 is released in November, I hope all these bugs
will have been fixed and we won't need to maintain an incompatible
version.
