347974 - Dates in column headers for week view do not respect locale date ordering

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 345643

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

[Craig Ringer]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060719 Firefox/1.5.0.5
Build Identifier: 

The headers indicating the date of each day in the week shown in the week view of a calendar in Mozilla Lightning (0.1, the current stable release) are always in US date order (m/d), at least on Linux. They should respect LC_DATE and appear in (d/m) order in most countries outside the US.

Dates elsewhere are shown correctly for the locale.

This is an i18n issue not a localization issue, so I'm submitting it here rather than the Mozilla Localization project. Hope that's correct.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. LANG="en_AU" LC_ALL="en_AU" LC_TIME="en_AU" /path/to/thunderbird
2. Calendar->Week View

(Yes, LC_ALL is redundant, and LANG shouldn't matter ... just making sure).
Actual Results:  
the dates across the top of the week view are in m/d order, eg "8/9" for the 9th of August ("August 9" for Americans).

Expected Results:  
Dates across the top should be in d/m order for LC_TIME=en_AU , m/d order for LC_TIME=en_US .
