The only other suggestion I can make is to write your own formatting
function.  It'd be a pain in the neck to build a general-purpose one,
but you could handle a fixed output format with just a few lines of code
in plpgsql.  (Might be even easier in plperl or pltcl.)  That would
probably tide you over until to_char() has more locale support.
