Hello!

The introduction of this variable is no good idea. In German we are using two values: the number 2 for day names and the number 3 for month names.

To most people solutions mean finding the answers. But to chemists solutions
are things that are still all mixed up.

Indeed. calendar-abbrev-length only provides a default set of
abbreviations. I'm not going to introduce separate length variables for
days and months.
