I kept wondering why I've never seen this problem.  This is Solaris
10, where we're still using 8859 locales:

    $ env LC_TIME=en_CA.ISO8859-1 date +%x
    02/07/11
    $ env LC_TIME=en_US.ISO8859-1 date +%x
    07/02/11

This is Solaris 11 Express:

    $ env LC_TIME="en_CA.UTF-8" date +%x
    07/02/11
    $ env LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" date +%x
    07/ 2/11

This is OI 148:

    $ env LC_TIME="en_CA.UTF-8" date +%x
    11-07-02
    $ env LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" date +%x
    07/ 2/11
