I made digging and you can find what the exact problem is: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88307#c2 

In nutshell: An ICU header (ICU/include/unicode/utf.h) includes "#include "unicode/utf8.h". It wants to include its own unicode/utf8.h, not WTF's unicode/UTF8.h. They are completely different.

I think only Apple port uses the ICU headers checked into the WebKit 
source, all other ports use the installed system headers. Similar to
other 3rd party dev packages.
