Yes. GNOME uses the locale or at least it used to. I had this problem
quite a while ago and I fixed mine like this. That problem now no longer
exists for me. I do not know of any control other than selecting the
proper locale or editing the file as it says in the link. I also do not
recall having to change as much

This line in my en_US (Fedora 8) is not like his example either. Mine reads:

7;19671130;7

And my calendar starts with Sunday.
