So I'm confused (as well as some other regulars on IRC), and either the documentation needs updating, jamfiles need updating, or my understanding needs updating.
For now, the workaround mentioned above works fine, and the resulting regex.so file does not have any ICU external library dependencies (which is what is desired for our deployment environment).
With apologies, the docs and code went out of synch for 1.44 - and I forgot to add a "force ICU not to be used" option :-( This has been fixed for forthcoming 1.45. Another workaround would be to add an #error to libs/regex/build/has_icu_build.cpp to force the ICU config check to fail. HTH, John.
