At least some versions of strftime support these:
     %A    is replaced by national representation of the full  
weekday name.

     %a    is replaced by national representation of the abbreviated  
weekday
           name.

     %B    is replaced by national representation of the full month  
name.

     %b    is replaced by national representation of the abbreviated  
month
           name.
.. and epicsTimeToStrftime just calls the underlying strftime
after removing the format character for the nanoseconds (if used).

Not sure if that's available on vxWorks, RTEMS, ....
