EXSLT - date:day-abbreviation - EXSLT Function Implementation

Supported Version: 2
XML Definition: date.day-abbreviation.xml
Source: date.day-abbreviation.function.xsl

This implementation relies on date:date-time() being available in order to get the current date/time. If it isn't, it uses the global parameter $date:date-time as the current date/time.
