There is no API to access the standalone month names. There is no C
API in Tiger ICU library either. Those things that are using it are
doing some sort of nasty groping of the ICU underlying data store.
The Date & Time prefs pane, for example, is NSDatePicker in AppKit.
ICU 3.4 adds the API to return/use those things, and CF/
NSDateFormatter are getting updated to use them. But that's the future.

I have a text field and I want to to show the current month name.
It seems an easy task at first - attach a NSDateFormatter, set its
dateFormat to "%B" or "MMMM" and you're done. But...
Some languages use two grammar forms of month names (Russian,
Polish, Greek...). Latest ICU version (integrated in Tiger)
supports this. For example Date & Time pref pane uses the stand-
alone month name.
My question is does anyone know how to access the stand alone month
name (if it's possible of course)? I read the recently updated docs
for data formatting but couldn't find any info about this.
Thanks,
