           Summary: Wine does not support genitive forms of month names
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.21
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: tarasov.igor at gmail.com


MSDN: "Some languages, such as Finnish, German, Polish, and Russian, have
several noun forms. If you plan to use localized names provided by the system,
have a linguist check to make sure you are using them in the right context.
Windows carries both the nominative and genitive forms of Polish and Russian
month names; the form changes depending on the month name's position in the
string relative to the day name. Windows returns both forms in a single string
separated by a null value. The system carries only one form of each month name
or day name for all other languages."

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc194815.aspx

Wine ships only nominative forms for these languages. So, applications that
rely on this, render dates not as "14 мая 2009", but as "14 Май 2009".

Side note: first letter in genitive form is lower-case, as opposed to to
upper-case for nominative form.
