I have reviewed this patch. I like the method you used, but I did find
a few things I had to change.
First, I found the abbreviated variable names confusing so I used longer
ones, like:
extern char *localized_abbrev_days[7];
extern char *localized_full_days[7];
extern char *localized_abbrev_months[12];
extern char *localized_full_months[12];
Second, I found that the code doing upper/lower case didn't work. It
was copying the buffer into a 'result' variable, but then incrementing
'result' so by the end 'result' pointed to only the null byte, and that
is the pointer that was returned. Third, there were a few places where
the code assumed str_toupper() modified the passed buffer, rather than
returning a new one. And finally, while you used strdup() to save
values in the cache (good), you never free()'ed the old values when you
were reloading the cache.
I have fixed all these items and the updated patch is at:
