Btw, setSymbol() is affected too, and does not seem to be addressed
in r305571.  In both cases, it's PHP exposing ICU bug.

setSymbol() give only DoS with strlen(NULL) [CWE-170].

I don't see that with ICU 4.2.1 and PHP 5.3.3.   Please clarify if you
see some different results with different ICU or PHP.  Or maybe using
different way to call setSymbol().

my mistake, not setSybol() but getLocale()

$nx=new IntlDateFormatter("pl", IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
IntlDateFormatter::FULL);
$nx->getLocale(1);
