FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
1.5.0-b64

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Currently sun.text.resources.LocaleElements_uk contains following patterns for date representation:
"EEEE, d, MMMM yyyy", "EEEE, d, MMMM yyyy", "d/M/yyyy", "d/M/yy"

They are unnatural for Ukraine. The more convenient representation is:
"EEEE, d MMMM yyyy \u0440.", "d MMMM yyyy \u0440.", "dd.MM.yyyy", "dd.MM.yy"

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
        Locale locale = new Locale("uk");
        Date thisDate = new Date();
        System.out.println(DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.FULL, locale).format(thisDate));
        System.out.println(DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.LONG, locale).format(thisDate));
        System.out.println(DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.MEDIUM, locale).format(thisDate));
        System.out.println(DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale).format(thisDate));


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
