When I have time, I could look into that. Or Tomaz.

I currently plan on having free time sometime in June :-)

That was my Linux machine you saw. The Windows machine is configured to 
English, except for date/time settings. I can't stand MM/dd/yyyy, so it's one 
of the first things I changed. I guess that's where it came from.

I did the same configuration on the Mac, but the LC_* environment variables 
don't change there. Doing that broke the Intel "Work week" application, which 
constantly displays "WW0" for me now (developer says it does not support 
dd/MM).

If I run the Qt QLocale unit test on that Mac, it's actually showing me a 
failure:

FAIL!  : tst_QLocale::macDefaultLocale() Compared values are not the same
   Actual   (locale.dateFormat(QLocale::ShortFormat)): dd/MM/yy
   Expected (QString("M/d/yy")): M/d/yy

The test has a bad assumption: that the user will not change the date settings 
without changing the language. This is a false negative: the actual date 
format was correctly obtained from the Mac API.

Another improvement over Gtk then: the Gtk file dialog shows dates with 
MM/dd/yyyy.
