On kfreebsd-amd64, I see:

ar: creating ../lib/libicudata.a
genccode: --match-arch cpu=3 bits=32 big-endian=1
pkgdata: ar r ../lib/libicudata.a ./out/tmp/icudt46l_dat.o
pkgdata: ranlib ../lib/libicudata.a

So I do not see where icudt46l_dat.o gets created.
(I do not know genccode)
However, on kfreebsd-i386, I find:

ar: creating ../lib/libicudata.a
pkgdata: gcc   -O2 -c -
I/home/local/src/texlive2011/source/Work/libs/icu/../../../libs/icu/icu-4.6/common 
-I../common -DPIC -fPIC -o ./out/tmp/icudt46l_dat.o ./out/tmp/icudt46l_dat.s
pkgdata: ar r ../lib/libicudata.a ./out/tmp/icudt46l_dat.o
pkgdata: ranlib ../lib/libicudata.a

So, perhaps, here is the problem!

It's running, answer soon...
