Rails - Jun 2006 - Localization of the date_select -helper

I could use some help with translating month names for the date_select
helper using gettext.

Think my best bet would be to override the
ActionView::Helpers::DateHelper.select_month method once gettext is
initialized, which is done by a before_filter in ApplicationContext,
but have no idea how I would go about that.

Any suggestions appreciated,
Isak
