Comment (by nacin):

 Replying to [comment:20 obenland]:
 > Yes, we'd assume that PHP *is* operating under a different locale. There
 are a number of instances where we already make that assumption, namely in
 `get_the_archive_title()`.

 I think this is a bad assumption and one we should not make, whether in
 `get_the_archive_title()`, here, or anywhere else. If I reviewed
 `get_the_archive_title()`, and I think I did, then I simply missed it
 there and in past its incarnations in Twenty Eleven et al.

 `date()` isn't even locale-aware, according to the documentation:
 http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php. Even if it were, I would
 venture to guess that the locale is almost never *installed*, let alone
 configured (WordPress doesn't use `setlocale()`).
