Could it be that pbuilder on ubuntu behaves differently than in Debian?
Looking at [1] line 1155 it seems that "saucy" is the default target for
pbuilder update. And it's libicu48 in saucy [2]

[2] http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/saucy/libicu48

Just debstrap yourself an Debian sid chroot for development :)
Will be also easier to get support here, as there are differences to
Ubuntu, and you spare yourself the dual-booting :)
