Bug Description

This bug is observed in Ubuntu 16.10.

When one changes the settings for the time indicator, sometimes the locale order of displaying the date is not adhered.

Steps to reproduce:

- Set a locale that places the date number before the month, for example Dutch.
- Set the option in unity-control-center, time menu, to show the date and month.
-- See that the date is correctly placed before the month
- Now set the show year option.
-- See that the date is now shown after the month instead. The abbreviated month is translated correctly though.
