I suspect all glibc-2.x's will work similarly.  Older libc's (and
non glibc's, I don't know about.)

That's a failure (just like I saw in my tests).  It's can't find 'de',
so the locale defaults to "C".  You can be even more sure of this
by printing the day-name:

LANG=de_DE date +%A
Mittwoch

LANG=de date +%A
Wednesday

So tell me again: which of these worked under which version(s) of
Windows?

I just tested an older SunOS machine: 'de' and 'de_AT' worked, but NOT
'de_DE' nor 'german' nor 'deutsch'.  Ug.
