[Bug 908233] Re: cal -M (start week on Monday) don't work

A workaround is to use 'ncal -bM'. (Or even 'ncal -b' works on my
system.)

I think what is confusing (apart from having two different commands for
the same thing) is that cal used to have different behaviour. E.g., in
Ubuntu 10.04, cal always started the week with Monday.
