Accordingly to this file [1] and also because I'm Italian, I've seen
an error in the way the date is displayed in linux.
The correct formati for Italian speakers is:
day_name day_number month_name year HH:MM:SS

in the LC_TIME date_fmt things are really mixed up and should be changed to:
%a %e %b %Y, %H:%M:%S, %Z

italy.patch

possible patch, that swaps the fields. It does not add the "," since I don't
know if it must be added or not

This is the correct format (note that : is now .)
updated patch accordingly.

"%a %e %b %Y, %H.%M.%S, %Z"

Now you just need to commit

I'll answer tomorrow, since I have to look back at the patch because I forgot
the changelog.

Can you tell me the difference from date_fmt and d_t_fmt?

Frankly, I have not been able to figure what date_fmt is good for quickly - its
purpose seems to be the same as d_fmt, but I cannot find it being used anywhere
within glibc...

This patch contains the changelog, and drops the bits for it_CH since I'm from
Italy, not from Switzerland.

Nicolo,
different date and time formats are used depending from format :
% Appropriate date and time representation
date_fmt   ...
% Appropriate date and time representation (%c) with abbreviations
d_t_fmt ...
% Appropriate date representation (%x)
d_fmt  ...
% Appropriate time representation (%X)

Ok, so I will change date_fmt to not contain abbreviations.
What about the timezone? Should it be present for both date_fmt and d_fmt?
