ld: bl out of range (-17524756 max is +/-16M) from _MOZ_ReportAssertionFailure 
at 0x049742E8 in __text_cold of ../../xpcom/base/ClearOnShutdown.o to

gmake[1]: *** [XUL] Error 1

This is very bad.

This didn't happen in 26, and ICU is known to bloat the build substantially ( 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=853301 ). Let's build without it.

OK, that links. So that buys us some time until --with-intl-api becomes 
mandatory (it isn't yet because Android and B2G don't support it either).

Release builds should be smaller, shouldn't they?
Even if not one can still dynamically link against ICU.

They should be, but I haven't tried, and I still need a debug build.

Mozilla builds ICU static. They are working on something to spin out the .dat 
file which right now is linked in too, so that could help (right now the Mac 
version has two copies, one for x86 and one for x64, which bloats XUL further).

And it looks like we're not the only one to hit this with ICU:

Well, I take that back. They do still support building a shared ICU; I thought 
it had bitrotted: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=926980

We want to fix this eventually, but this is no longer critical.
