Note that my Mac runs in Dutch.
From Terminal I get this:
From AppleScript I get this:
do shell script "date" --> "Wed Sep 19 12:15:33 CEST 2012"
It would appear that ‘do shell’ is using the en_US locale, not nl_NL. Can I do do something about that?
This may give you more info on what’s happening:

Hello!
It is no glitch really, not if you execute scripts with other’s do shell script within them!
I have a snow leopard machine, so I can define environment variables in ~/.MacOsX/Environment.plist. I have set up LC_all to Bm_no to get Norwegian values.
If you are an Lion or later I believe you have to do it in launchd.conf environment.plist - Google
