A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
In catalonia, we use Monday as first day of week, as in
Spain, France, Italy..., not Sunday, as in UK, US,...
I was finding a government organization which supports that
Monday shoud be the first day of week, but "they don't know
what department is".
Fortunately http://oss.software.ibm.com/cgi-bin/icu/lx/en/?_=ca_ES&
supports it (and is your reference), although
parent version sets (wrong) Sunday as first day of week.
I downloaded and tested 1.4.1 RC, and bug also exists.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Compile and run the enclosed source code.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
Actual results:
First day of week is 1

Expected results:
First day of week is 2


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Locale;

public class TestLocale {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
   Calendar caCalendar = Calendar.getInstance(new Locale("ca", "ES"));
   System.out.println("First day of week is " + caCalendar.getFirstDayOfWeek());
 }
}
