As is, icu-58.1 does not build on uclibc-ng because at some point uclibc-ng does not grok a relative path. Converting the relative path to its absolute equivalent corrects the problem.

yeah, icu and python suffer from this.  it really should be fixed in uclibc-ng but this is okay as a cheap temp fix until we figure out what's going on with LD_LIBRARY_PATH in uclibc-ng

Does this still affect current versions?
