The string "Sonnabend" never appears in the glibc sources, so that will certainly not work. I vote not to care about that, but of course my language is not one that has alternate weekday/month names. I guess if we're intent on recognizing alternate names, we'll have to build our own list of them :-( I don't have the ICU sources here to check the status there. -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
