Looking at the code again, it looks like this should work:

<?dbtimestamp format="B d, Y" 
padding="0"?>

The padding is 1 by default.  The padding value applies to
hour and
minute 
as well as date, so it would be best to use separate
dbtimestamp PIs if
you 
need both date and time and want different padding
behavior.

On that note, is there any way to make the "day of the
month" value drop
the leading '0'?

I use <?dbtimestamp format='B d, Y'?> and I get
something like 'March
07, 2007' which seems a bit crude. I would like to see
'March 7, 2007'

Actually, the stylesheets have a processing instruction
named
dbtimestamp that does that.  The "M" format letter
automatically inserts
the leading

zero if the minute number is less than 10.  See:
