I attached a patch and testcase to fix first_weekday and first_workday and test
those two plus week_1stday. But I cannot find the standards text which specifies
first_weekday and first_workday so I'm not 100% this is the right thing to do. I
found one comment on a gentoo page stating that these are not part of the
standard FWIW.

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_localedef

(Also this bug is only for first_weekday so changing first_workday may not be
needed but it seemed logical to me and I saw similar settings in other locale
files.)

One more note:

The localedata tree has a file named POSIX, and based on it the locale-archive
database also has a POSIX entry. This file contains no "week" or
"first_weekday" entries, so the glibc built-in default, 19971130 and 1 are
used, which would lead to a calendar displayed beginning with Sunday if this
locale entry would be reachable, but it isn't, since the built-in POSIX locale 
is used whenever the POSIX locale is requested.

So glibc is inconsistent with itself, its built-in POSIX is different from
what the file called POSIX says.

This means that if someone creates a locale which copies the POSIX locale's
time stuff:

LC_TIME
copy "POSIX"
END LC_TIME 

then this locale will behave differently than the POSIX locale, as this new
external locale will start the weeks on Sunday, unlike built-in POSIX.

Today I spent some time trying to understand the locale fields "week" and
"first_weekday" to fix the Hungarian locale (bug #1429). It all started with a
Gnome update, Gnome 2.8 presented a Monday-based calendar, while 2.12 brought
me to a Sunday-based one which is unusable most Hungarian people (well, at
least for me :-) so I wanted to fix it. Then it turned out that new Gnome uses
these fields from glibc...

After all, I came to exactly the same conclusion as Petter. "first_weekday" is
relative to the date (usually 19971130 or 19971201) defined in the "week"
field (which is later available as "week-1stday". As a result, currently
glibc's C locale defines that a calendar should be displayed as if weeks
started on Saturday.

In accordance, if I start Gnome with LC_ALL=POSIX, its calendar really displays
weeks from Saturday to Friday.
