To be able to have our code more internationalized is the reason why we
would like this function.  Currently we use the format mm/dd/yyyy where
other countries use dd/mm/yyyy.  We would like to have the month
abbreviation so that when the information is pulled directly from the
database and then displayed, then the month and the day will be
distinguishable.

That is easy enough to do for the english-speaking world.  It is
hard to internationalize.
