I committed the first patch, r23608. It won't make any translation any worse and
it lets you fix your problem with Lithuanian.

It's a bit of a pain to have to resort to gettext for this, but I had a look at 
GLib,
strftime, and ICU and none of them have an internally localizable format for 
"Day-of-week day-of-month month-full-name year-including-century". ICU's FULL 
format comes close, but adds "AD", which is a bit silly in our usage.
