  SVN rev 193688 on 2009-06-08 05:33:08Z by edwin
  
  [patch] [locale] German locales use old %d.%m.%y date format instead of newer ISO date
  
  From the submitter:
  
      DIN 5008 (German norm for text processing) defines the old date
      format (%d.%m.%Y) to be obsolete and to be used only, if unambigous.
      In international communications the new format (%Y-%m-%d) is now
      required and FreeBSD should respect this.
  
      References:
      - DIN 5008
      - EN 28 601
      - ISO 8601
  
      Thanks to Oliver Lietz for bringing this to my attention.
