Ahm, replying to myself. I got a bit into this and did a test file 
which had:
<?php

setlocale( LC_ALL, 'fi_FI' );

$last_login = mktime(0, 0, 0, date('m') - 1, date('d'));

echo 'sent-mail'.strtolower(strftime("-%b-%Y", $last_login));

When I open this file with my browser it outputs:
sent-mail-huhti -2002

So that's where the extra empty character is coming from. Any 
suggestions how to handle with this?
