No libs or .dlls in the ICU 3.6 zip, so you have to make your own.

1. Cygwin is required for a VC6 ICU build. (That's a default - ie minimal - 
cygwin installation, + GNU make.)
2. Re-save the files in icu/source with *nix line endings. Otherwise cygwin 
can't read them and configure will fail.
3. Add /cygwin/bin to your PATH.
4. Add icu/bin to your PATH if you intend to run the test suite.
5. From the MS command prompt, cd into icu/source and type:

bash ./runConfigureICU Cygwin/MSVC
make

After a few moments you should see:

rbbi.cpp(760) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR

?????

I'm curious to know if there's any reason the binaries are missing from the 
zip archive. The licensing doesn't appear restrictive?
