How can I remotely (via web services) determine date format of SharePoint 2003 site, for use in Versions.asmx returned XML?

The GetVersions() call to the Versions.asmx web service in SharePoint 2003 returns a localised date format, with no way of determining what the format is. It's the site regional setting of date format, but I can't find a way to get even that out of SharePoint 2003. Locally, it looks like SPRegionalSettings can be used (http://msdn.micros...
