The enclosed patch changes the behaviour of the "ordinal" ('TH') format for

to_char.  I don't know about the rest of the world, but the "standard" in
Australia is the following:

        1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th - 9th
        10th - 19th
        21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th - 29th (similarly for 30s - 90s)
        110th - 119th (and for all "teens")
        121st, 122nd, 123rd, 124th - 129th

I think you see the trend.  The current code works fine except that it
produces:

        111st, 112nd, 113rd, 114th - 119th
        211st, 212nd, 213rd, 214th - 219th ... and so on.

Without knowing anything about what's supported (and what isn't) in the usual
I18N libraries, should this type of behaviour be defined within the locales?
