Yes, Garrett Wollman already told me so. (OTOH, I've fixed 'ncal -e'

I have had an idea that the normal form of month name is a 'cal-only'
thing and 'cal' should use a message catalog for month names. (I have
this implemented). But now I already not so sure, and plan to implement

standards. What do you think?
