Dear Mike and glib-2.0 maintainers, I've tried few combination of LC_TIME and LANG with my glibtest snippet. Date still displayed in en_US despite all combination I've tried (LANG=th_TH.tis-620, LANG=th_TH.utf-8, LC_ALL=th_TH.tis-620, LC_ALL=th_TH.utf-8, LC_TIME=th_TH).
But I've found that even with LC_ALL=en_US and LANG=en_US time is still displayed in 24-hour (th_TH) format; see the last case.

Note: "th_TH" is an alias of "th_TH.tis-620". Regards, Nachanon P.S. These are tested by overriding locale using environment variable.
