Title:
  java interpreter does not honor LC_CTYPE or LC_MESSAGES

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  My locale is this:
  LANG=en_US.utf8
  LANGUAGE=en
  LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_TIME=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_COLLATE=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_MONETARY=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
  LC_PAPER=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_NAME=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_ADDRESS=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_TELEPHONE=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_MEASUREMENT=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_IDENTIFICATION=sv_SE.utf8
  LC_ALL=

  I therefore expect servertool's language to be English. However, this is how it looks:
  -----------------
  Välkommen till Java IDL Server Tool 
  skriv kommandona vid prompten 

  servertool > 
  -----------------

  In other words, it's in Swedish.

  It looks like it uses LC_CTYPE, which I think is wrong.
