Note that this is an ongoing effort.  Some Romance languages will 
eventually use this to correct the incorrect spelling of “de April” into 
“d'April”.  Once this happens, it will be necessary to change 
translation strings for these languages from “de %B” to “%B”, otherwise, 
the result will “de d'April”.

(Yes, the meaning of %B changed in a backwards-incompatible way, and 
glibc upstream deliberately implemented it this way.)

Thanks,
