I don't know which columns are dates (so, I'll assume those prefixed with dt are). For your test script, you would have to change from

my $sth = $dbh->prepare_cached( "SELECT * FROM ReleaseDates" );
to
my $sth = $dbh->prepare_cached( "SELECT convert( char(8), dtXXX, 101 ) FROM ReleaseDates" );
for the cgi:
my $sth =$connection->prepare( "SELECT Release, dtTargetFeatureFreeze, dtTargetCCRB, dtTargetReleaseFromDev, dtTargetRTM, TwikiURL, ReleaseNum, Display FROM ReleaseDates WHERE (Display = 1)" );
to
my $sth =$connection->prepare( "SELECT Release, convert( char(8), dtTargetFeatureFreeze, 1), convert( char(8), dtTargetCCRB, 1), convert( char(8), dtTargetReleaseFromDev, 1), convert( char(8), dtTargetRTM, 1), TwikiURL, ReleaseNum, Display FROM ReleaseDates WHERE (Display = 1)" );
-derby

update: BTW, setting dateformat only affects inputting dates.
