This is easy:
icu-3.8-5.src.patch already contains the two extra patches.

This is harder:
icu-3.8-5.cygwin.patch will also not apply automatically by cygport
due to a cygport problem with SRC_DIR containing a "/".

Workaround:
* rename PATCH_URI to WRONG_PATCH_URI
* check icu/source/source/CYGWIN_PATCHES and move it to
   icu/source/CYGWIN_PATCHES
