Yes, although libraries and tests shouldn't be testing against cultural formatting whose goal is to produce the updated best result, not the same result.  For example we had an internal corporate client which needed to use fixed formatting, instead of culturally sensitive formatting, because they really wanted exactly the same output every time, because the output data was going to be consumed by machine and not just by humans.
