In reading the rules (actually Tips und Ratschläge für Computer-Logging):

  http://www.darc.de/referate/dx/xgdcl.htm

there is no mention of the Cabrillo format.  If they don't accept logs in that
format, then there is no reason why logging software should produce it.

Remember, Cabrillo is a standard that was developed for the ARRL and adopted by
some other organizations, notably CQ.  There is no mandate that any other
organization has to use this format, thought it may be a good idea in the long
run.
