For WebKitGTK+, we do not support building without ENABLE(INTL), and we 
don't need to worry about RHEL 7 since RHEL is shipping an unsupported 
version of WebKit with bundled ICU.

But we do need to support Ubuntu 16.04 (with ICU 55). If ENABLE(INTL) 
is going to require newer ICU than that, then we would need to expose 
ENABLE(INTL) and ensure that disabling it works. We do have a buildbot 
to check this, and it's green right now, so trunk must be fine. But I'm 
curious if anyone knows what the ICU requirement is for ENABLE(INTL)?
