I'd like to propose that we drop support for the --enable-hpuxcma 
configure option.  It makes it easier for testing if we don't support this 
option, and it only worked briefly in ICU 2.6.  Several versions of ICU 
previous to 2.6 didn't work with this configure option at all.  Due to the 
lack of people complaining about this configure option being broken in 
previous releases, I don't think anyone will miss it.  Normally ICU uses 
pthreads on HP-UX.  This option only affects people that use HP-UX.

Deadline for comments: Sept. 26, 2003
