The value MON_(1-12) has special behavior in Russian locale: it returns declinated month names, that can be used as part of a date string, but not on their own.

For instance instead of "Январь" (the proper nominative form) it returns "Января" (form declinated for use in dates).

There seems to be no way to get the nominative form of the month name - one has to use translations instead.
