I agree with Pádraig. That should be set back to 1. If somebody asked
for setting it to 2, then he should read the standards again and
understand what week_1stday is.

> Do you intend first_weekday=1 always correspond to Sunday now,

That can not be, as week systems may have other notions of week days
(e.g. not 7 days, but 10).

My guess is that somebody erroneously did that assumption, yes.
