As I said, we migh look into it, but AFAIK this would mean we either
modify the current locale (really nasty) or create a pseudo-locale with
the user setting (just nasty). Unless someone has better idea or
understanding of the POSIX locales. Either way, I'd feel we would be the
only UNIX system doing this (does OSX do it too?). Ideas welcome.

Mac OS X 10.4:

Displaying the date and time

You can have an analog or digital clock appear in the menu bar or in a floating window on your desktop. You can also choose how the time appears (for example, you can choose to see the day of the week, or use a 24-hour clock).

I don't know what they do to the locale, but 24 hour format is just a checkbox on the clock tab in the date and time system preferences.

Here's what the terminal thinks is my locale information:

$ locale
LANG=
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_ALL="C"

Right now I'm in the US with a 24 hour clock on my Mac Desktop.
