[Bug libc/10547] New: strftime Feature Request - day of month as 1st, 2nd, 3rd...


It would be great to have the option to display a date with its 
ordinal suffix, e.g. 22nd August, especially now that these 
display options carry through to the panel clock in GUIs such as 
XFCE.  

I raised this possibility with the coreutils team but was advised that they are
reluctant to add format modifiers where no precedent exists in the C libraries.

Kind Regards,
clubsoda
