SIRS,
my OS date format is DD.MM.YYYY, but emacs dired shows
e.g. V 1 2004 even when run as runemacs --no-init-file
--no-site-file.
Consequently lines for January, May and October are
not recognized.

Bug report lists:
In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2004-03-10 on NYAUMO
configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.2)'
Important settings:
  value of $LC_ALL: nil
  value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
  value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
  value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
  value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
  value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
  value of $LC_TIME: nil
  value of $LANG: CSY
  locale-coding-system: iso-8859-2
  default-enable-multibyte-characters: t

Am not sure if this is a bug, but could not find a
solution from help-emacs-windows@gnu.org mailing list.

Thank you.
Radek Hejl

You could try setting LANG=ENG before starting Emacs, but I don't think it
will help, because if I set LANG=CSY before starting Emacs then I get the
same locale values as above, but ls-lisp still presents dates in the
standard English way.  However, I'm running a precompiled Emacs binary
compiled with MSVC, namely

In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2003-03-28 on buffy
configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)'

So I would guess that the behaviour you are seeing is caused by the mingw
libraries that you are using.  If it's a bug then it would appear to be a
bug in mingw rather than Emacs.

There is probably a later version of mingw available, so you could try
rebuilding with that.  Alternatively, you should be able to find the
precompiled binaries that I'm running on a GNU mirror somewhere.

I installed binaries from some uk mirror now with gnu unxutils (before with
djtarnt) .
I get this message:
In GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2003-03-28 on buffy
configured using `configure --with-msvc (12.00)'
Important settings:
  value of $LC_ALL: nil
  value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
  value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
  value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
  value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
  value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
  value of $LC_TIME: nil
  value of $LANG: CSY
  locale-coding-system: iso-8859-2
  default-enable-multibyte-characters: t

So it's same as your compilation, but the problem persists.
Also setting LANG=ENG doesn't help.

Regards Radek
