Package: libc6
Version: 2.17-1

man page of strftime: http://linux.die.net/man/3/strftime

Some conversion specifications can be modified by preceding the
conversion specifier character by the E or O modifier to indicate that
an alternative format should be used. If the alternative format or
specification does not exist for the current locale, the behavior will
be as if the unmodified conversion specification were used. (SU) The
Single UNIX Specification mentions %Ec, %EC, %Ex, %EX, %Ey, %EY, %Od,
%Oe, %OH, %OI, %Om, %OM, %OS, %Ou, %OU, %OV, %Ow, %OW, %Oy, where the
effect of the Omodifier is to use alternative numeric symbols (say,
roman numerals), and that of the E modifier is to use a
locale-dependent alternative representation.

date +'%d %B %Om'

As explained above, there is no bug, so I am closing it.
