There's this:

http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/

which is X Licenced.  (From the web page: "The ICU project is licensed under the X License (see also the x.org original), which is compatible with GPL but non-viral." Some viruses are good :-)

I haven't used it but I've downloaded it a couple of times with the intention of giving it a run out only to be distracted by beer or something else.  It's currently used by the Xerces (XML parser) apache project.

HTH,
