Hi
My customer reported an interesting issue. He needs translated month name,
and then he use
to_char(current_date, 'tmmonth');
Unfortunately, glibc returns nouns in the genitive case instead of the
nominative case.
This is a glibc feature from the 2.28 release. Genitive case makes sense,
when the result holds a day, but without it, it is messy.
glibc has alternative month names, that can be taken by usage placeholder
'%OB' of function strftime.

see alt_mon.
Can we enhance prefixes (maybe tmo) to be possible to use alternative names?

Pavel
