But how you handle situation when you have multi language application which needs correct output for all languages? You cannot use any of the pattern because it will be wrong for some group of languages.

FYI, strftime() [1] doesn't say anything about capitalization. I don't know if some translators are aware of it and even if they are, how would they know that a day or month is the first word of a sentence? IMHO we should provide Xxxxx, xxxxx, and XXXXX so the programmer can use whatever he/she thinks is correct for him/her.
