Hello,

This is my first message to this list so I apologize for any possible
errors.

Please find attached a patch which is an attempt to implement the
missing feature: month names in genitive case.
You can find more info and discussion at:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10871

Short summary: some languages require an alternative (genitive)
form of the month name when it is used in a full date, at the same
time they also require a basic (nominative) form when used standalone.
The locale subsystem should provide both forms of month names for
these languages plus an algorithm choosing the proper form.
The solution should not be destructive for the languages which
do not need this feature.

I will appreciate your comments.

Best regards,

Rafal Luzynski
