Huh? I don't think so:

$ grep -r nl_langinfo ncal/* 
ncal/calendar.c:	if ((wd = weekday(nd) + 1 - weekstart) >=
*nl_langinfo(_NL_TIME_WEEK_1STWEEK))
ncal/ncal.c:		u.str = nl_langinfo(_NL_TIME_WEEK_1STDAY);
ncal/ncal.c:		weekstart =
*nl_langinfo(_NL_TIME_FIRST_WEEKDAY) + (ndaysj(&first_week_d) -
ndaysj(&sunday)) % 7 - 1;
