This would be useful.
Or do things respond to the LC_LANG (etc.) environment variables?
Then we could just `setenv' a bit...
(format-time-string "%b" (current-time))
=> "Oct"
even with LC_ALL or LANG set to "de". Am I doing something wrong?
And try
(setenv "LANG" "C")
or whatever before evaling the format-time-string...
