Changes: make POSIX date and formats %A and %B use the stand-alone forms

RevBy: Berthold Krevert

Details:

“stand-alone” means that for example for “Thursday” in Finnish
“torstai” is returned and not the inflected form “torstaina” and
for “Oktober” in Finnish “lokakuu” is returned and not the
inflected form “lokakuuta”.

This makes it the same as the behaviour of these format specifiers
on a standard desktop Linux system:

    mfab@mars:~
    $ LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8 date
    to 14.10.2010 19.11.46 +0200
    mfab@mars:~
    $ LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8 date +%A
    torstai
    mfab@mars:~
    $ LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8 date +%B
    lokakuu
    mfab@mars:~
    $
