to answer my own question I looked at esql.xsl(lines 777-787) and now I 
know
that it is *not* possible.

I now use the i18n transformer to do the job:
        <i18n:date-time src-pattern="yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss" pattern="FULL" >
                <esql:get-timestamp column="date" format="yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss"/>
        </i18n:date-time>

ok, this works, but this is probably not  the fastest way if you have a 
page with a lot of dates and you have to override the server locale. 
Wouldn't it be better to have a possibility to define a global 
format+locale in esql?
