  I have committed this patch, thanks for working on it!

  However, I decided to defer on the change to pt_PT. While legally,
it is probably bound by the EU adoption of ISO8601, I have doubts
about adoption of this in daily life, based on:

	http://www.learn-portuguese-with-rafa.com/days-of-the-week-in-portuguese.html
	http://www.netplaces.com/brazilian-portuguese/the-vocabulary-of-numbers/days-of-the-week.htm
	http://www.brazil-help.com/week.htm
	<Adhemerval Zanella Netto> yes, Sunday is in fact the first day
		in the week in Brazil (IRC #glibc)

Most of the resources are about pt_BR, but also based on the language,
I'm not sure this change is right for pt_PT either. I think more
confirmation is required before making this change, therefore. Other
locales seemed fine to me on a cursory inspection.
