How to set eclipse console locale/language

Question

When developing web application with Eclipse (Helios) the tomcat output is being sent to the console. Ok, but the messages are being translated to my OS language.

In fact, my Eclipse is in English, but the Tomcat output (logging) is being translated to Portuguese. Probably it's a Tomcat configuration issue, but I can't find where...

How do I change this behaviour? I want my entire Eclipse in English, including Tomcat.
