 What do I have to add to my configuration so that I get Wed
 instead of Mi on all of my systems, independent of system
 settings?

Cool, (setq system-time-locale C) did the trick. Thanks!

 My naïve debug session resulted in: org-insert-timestamp 
 format-time-string which is built-in and uses locale settings to
 resolve %a to get the abbreviated name of the day.

 I don't have a clue which variable holds the locale settings that is
 used for this case and I also don't have an idea if modifying this
 variable has some potential negative effects as well.

See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-10/msg01046.html.
