Hi,

it's been nearly five years since I reported this issue. Something missing?

For what it's worth, here's the output of my test program (which I'll attach to
this bug) for Egyptian, Saudi Arabian, US and German locales:

nils@gibraltar:~/test> LC_ALL=ar_EG.UTF-8 ./strftime
locale: 'ar_EG.UTF-8'
probe 0: 0 0 6 1 0 100 6 0 0

    local time: 'CET 06:00:00 '

probe 1: 0 0 18 1 0 100 6 0 0
    mktime: 946746000
