Subject: [ruby-core:36064] [Ruby 1.9 - Bug #4662][Open] Date#strftime %v gives allcaps instead of normal caps


Issue #4662 has been reported by Tinco Andringa.

----------------------------------------
Bug #4662: Date#strftime %v gives allcaps instead of normal caps
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/4662

Author: Tinco Andringa
Status: Open
Priority: Low
Assignee: tadayoshi funaba
Category: ext
Target version: 1.9.3
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-05-09 trunk 31496) [x86_64-darwin10.5.0]


Since the big strftime changes of past month strftime gives a capitalised month abbreviation like so: 


    '%v'=>[' 3-FEB-2001' {:mday=>3,:mon=>2,:year=>2001}]

This is different from before where:

    '%v'=>[' 3-Feb-2001',{:mday=>3,:mon=>2,:year=>2001}],


Is there a reason for this change or was it accidental? It breaks with all previous ruby versions and is also inconsistent with for example %b or %c.
