Why does this start with a lower case “y”? In CLDR trunk it is “Yennayer”
with an uppercase “Y”.

The above is the same as the "stand-alone" forms in CLDR but a little
different from the locale as attached to this bug. So it is probably
OK if I use the stuff from CLDR here.

The stand-alone forms in CLDR trunk are:
<monthContext type="stand-alone">
<monthWidth type="abbreviated">
<month type="1" draft="unconfirmed">Yen</month>
<month type="2" draft="unconfirmed">Fur</month>
<month type="3" draft="unconfirmed">Meɣ</month>
<month type="4" draft="unconfirmed">Yeb</month>
<month type="5" draft="unconfirmed">May</month>
<month type="6" draft="unconfirmed">Yun</month>
<month type="7" draft="unconfirmed">Yul</month>
<month type="8" draft="unconfirmed">Ɣuc</month>
<month type="9" draft="unconfirmed">Cte</month>
<month type="10" draft="unconfirmed">Tub</month>
<month type="11" draft="unconfirmed">Wam</month>
<month type="12" draft="unconfirmed">Duj</month>
</monthWidth>
i.e. starting with upper case letters and without the final dot.
OK to use it as in CLDR?
> day "Acer";/
> "Arim";/
> "Aram";/
> "Ahad";/
> "Amhad";/
> "Sem";/
> "Sed"
Same as in CLDR trunk.
> abday "ace.";/
> "ari.";/
> "ara.";/
> "aha.";/
> "amh.";/
> "sem.";/
> "sed."
CLDR trunk has:
<dayContext type="stand-alone">
<dayWidth type="abbreviated">
<day type="sun" draft="unconfirmed">Ace</day>
<day type="mon" draft="unconfirmed">Ari</day>
<day type="tue" draft="unconfirmed">Ara</day>
<day type="wed" draft="unconfirmed">Aha</day>
<day type="thu" draft="unconfirmed">Amh</day>
<day type="fri" draft="unconfirmed">Sem</day>
<day type="sat" draft="unconfirmed">Sed</day>
</dayWidth>
I.e. starting with an upper case letter and without
the final dot.
