Re: ICU4C proposal: Remove the --enable-hpuxcma configure option

Let me also add that you can get this behavior back by implementing your 
own mutexing functions now contained in uclean.h.

        Subject:        ICU4C proposal: Remove the --enable-hpuxcma 
configure option


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.
