appt and calendar use different month names

[Torsten Bronger]

Symptoms:

I use

(setq calendar-month-name-array
      ["Januar" "Februar" "März" "April" "Mai" "Juni"
       "Juli" "August" "September" "Oktober" "November" "Dezember"])

in .emacs (German month names).  In the latest CVS Emacs this
doesn't work with "appt", i.e. no appointment windows pops up.  The
reason is that the diary entry starts with "Okt 10, 2005" but appt
expects "Oct 10, 2005".

It doesn't help to set calendar-month-abbrev-array to German abbreviations.


If emacs crashed, and you have the emacs process in the gdb debugger,

    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
