Description Andrew Conkling 2006-02-07 21:58:47 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
a GtkCalendar will always show Sunday as the first day of the week, even when
the locale says otherwise.  For example, locale -ck LC_TIME for en_GB.utf8 displays:
day="Sunday;Monday;Tuesday;Wednesday;Thursday;Friday;Saturday"
first_weekday=1

However, a calendar widget does not reflect this.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set LC_TIME to en_GB
2. `locale -ck LC_TIME` to check applied settings
3. Open a GtkCalendar (probably easiest by running `zenity --calendar` if
installed).


Actual results:
The calendar shows Sunday as the first day of the week.

Expected results:
The calendar should show Monday as the first day.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
Tested on Ubuntu Linux, GTK+ 2.8.6
and Arch Linux, GTK+ 2.8.11

See comments in the other bug; first_weekday is not enough.
