AFAIK this is broken on Qt level. Cf. calendar widget in KOrganizer (Ukrainian)

There are new specifiers for the primary and alternative month names in glibc but Qt does not implement them (must be something like "LLLL YYYY" instead of "MMMM YYYY" in formatting). Rafal Luzynski (the author of the glibc patch) in a private message (2018-01-25) promised me to send the patch for Qt but this has not happened yet.
