Does c-common.c and/or the strftime in version 2.0 of glibc address these points? Recent betas of the glibc strftime have support for the following formats, with the same meaning as the tz strftime.c: %G ISO 8601 4-digit year %g ISO 8601 2-digit year %V ISO 8601 2-digit week %u ISO 8601 1-digit weekday The next public glibc release should have this. The tz patch for c-common.c (understandably) hasn't caught up with this yet.
