The nice Tomcat folks provided a few language translations of the manager s=
trings in LocalStrings[_xx].properties files (buried inside server/webapps/=
manager/WEB-INF/lib/catalina-manager.jar).  The appropriate one is read up =
as a ResourceBundle during manager initialization based on the value of Loc=
ale.getDefault().  The default Locale is derived from the user.language sys=
tem property, which itself initially comes from LC_xxx variants, if not set=
 on the command line.  The default Locale can be changed on the fly (as can=
 user.language), but that shouldn't affect message bundles already read in.

If Tomcat or the manager app were not restarted before each language change=
, I still don't understand how this could happen.  I went so far as to modi=
fy the manager servlet to change the Locale after each display of the statu=
s page (and show the current language), but it still had no effect.
