[Bug localedata/22937] New: Greek (el_GR, el_CY) locale actually need ab_alt_mon


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22937

            Bug ID: 22937
           Summary: Greek (el_GR, el_CY) locale actually need ab_alt_mon
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.27
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: localedata
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: digitalfreak at lingonborough dot com
                CC: libc-locales at sourceware dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

It has been spotted that Greek language has actually visible difference between
the abbreviated nominative and the abbreviated genitive case for some month
names, for example May:

nom.: "Μάιος" -> gen.: "Μαΐου"

abbr. nom.: "Μάι" -> gen.: "Μαΐ"

July:

nom.: "Ιούλιος" -> gen.: "Ιουλίου"

abbr. nom.: "Ιούν" -> gen.: "Ιουλ"

and more month names with similar differences.

The difference is in the acute accents. So these month names need to be
imported from CLDR into the correct locations: abmon and ab_alt_mon.
