[Gtk-sharp-list] How to get Gtk.Calendar to display with monday as first day of week?

[Jesper K. Pedersen]

It seems like it is a problem getting the gtk calendar object to
display the week with monday as being the first day of the week.

Apparently the calendar widget rely on the system's locale and not what
you request by the object (like setting the DisplayOptions to include
WeekStartMonday - or doing it through Glade if you make your gui that
way)

Have anyone found a way to circumvent this problem ? (should it be
considered a bug in the gtk.calendar to be dependant on the system's
locale?)

Any hints are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
