In the live plugin - http://live.vdr-developer.org/ - we use a two fold 
approach.

Dates are formatted with strftime(3) which obeys for some of the format 
specifiers the current locale of the VDR. Additionally we 'translate' the 
format strings with the standard i18n support of VDR (e.g tr() macro). This 
allows the localization people to tailor to their special needs.

Best regards
Dieter
