Thanks for the bug report, but I don't understand what you mean.

What do you mean by `"\January" was typed out, for it is hardcoded in
calendar.el'? I don't see "January" anywhere in the attachment you
sent, instead I see "Leden". As far as I can see, `t y' etc (except
for cal-tex-cursor-filofax-year) respect the value of
calendar-month-name-array.

I think what you're saying here is a separate issue; namely that a
user may have customized calendar-month-name-array to have unusual
characters that might not latex correctly?
