Well, the doc requirements in the past to get this kind of thing fixed 
have been, umm, quite burdensome.  Fixing it for the EU seems like a 
no-brainer given the commission's clarification that they're following 
ISO 8601.

For countries outside the EU, I haven't done the research necessary to 
meet the doc requirements we've had for locale fixes.
