From the submitter:
DIN 5008 (German norm for text processing) defines the old date
format (%d.%m.%Y) to be obsolete and to be used only, if unambigous.
In international communications the new format (%Y-%m-%d) is now
required and FreeBSD should respect this.

Thanks to Oliver Lietz for bringing this to my attention.

In Portuguese, the names of the days of the week are not capitalized.
Also there is always a dash before "feira" in the names of the days.
For example: "segunda-feira" and not "segunda feira" (which has a
completely different meaning).
x_fmt is not correct either. The date separator should not be a dot
but a slash. Example: 31/12/2005 if far more used in Portugal than
31.12.2005.

LOCALES list. Since no_NO was still in LOCALES, make tried to build the
corresponding .out files, but couldn't since the .src files were gone. I
did not notice this because I still had the old .out files in my .OBJDIR.
Thanks to kib@ for the heads-up.
makes sense to have them both link to no_NO.
In other cases (such as LC_TIME), they differ, and the correct solution
is to have no_NO link to nb_NO, rather than the other way around.o

"month names" -> "months names"
typo
"Long months names (alternative)" or "in alternative form" ->
"(without case ending)"
"Long months names" -> "Long months names (as in a date)"
to not confuse developers on what purpose those sections are
- First part of long month names should use genitive.
- Use more proper shortcuts, leaving the first 3 letters is not always
correct.

names in Amharic instead of English.
Also, remove some extra names I had previously considered
including. They don't make sense since the calendar names
don't match up.
