More specifically:

1. with LDFLAGS=-Wl,--as-needed no binary links to any of the icu libraries,

2. grepping the sources shows no reference to ICU headers,

3. nor a single reference to HAVE_ICU macro.

I'd say ICU pretty much exists in the configure check only and nowhere else. If I'm correct, I suggest dropping USE=icu and disabling ICU support unconditionally (to avoid unnecessarily appending it to LIBS).

ICU is still unused in openldap-2.4.40.
