It would be great to have the option to display a date with its 
ordinal suffix, e.g. 22nd August, especially now that these 
display options carry through to the panel clock in GUIs such as 
XFCE.  

I raised this possibility with the coreutils team but was advised that they are
reluctant to add format modifiers where no precedent exists in the C libraries.

Kind Regards,
clubsoda

Not going to happen.  This doesn't work well (at all?) with
internationalization.  You could create your own locale with the alt_digits
appropriately defined and then %Od or so to print the day.  Not sure this works,
though, nobody tried that.
