In Spanish, these are abbreviations, not acronyms, and thus should be written “a. m.” and “p. m.” instead of “AM” and “PM”. The Spanish language has a uniform, pan-region orthographic norm, so this is applicable to all locales. Please use a no-break space in between. TIA!

Here's the patch:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/129793

As I indicated in comment:
"Since you talked about Spanish locales, should we do the same in source/localedata/data/an_ES.xml ?"
