I hadn't realized this was a recent change :-(

  http://www.mail-archive.com/dev%40struts.apache.org/msg12033.html

...but you prompted me to compare Validator 1.1.4 with the current version,
and this is caused by this change to ValidatorResources (revision 264683) a
few weeks ago:

   http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi?rev=264683&view=rev

The issue is in Commons Validator (rather than Struts) - probably best if
you open a bugzilla ticket against Commons Validator for this.
