The relevant part at the link Rafal gave is:
WEEKSTARTDATE specifies the base of the abday and day lists
first_weekday specifies the offset of the first day-of-week in the
abday and day lists
For compatibility reasons, all locales should set WEEKSTARTDATE on
19971130 (Sunday) and base the abday and day lists appropriately,
and set first_weekday 1 or 2 depending to whether their week
actually starts on Sunday or Monday.
So you should set "first_weekday 2" if you want to display Monday in
the first column of a calendar but start the abday arrays with Sunday

I think "sah_RU/UTF-8" is better.
