Strange, because the following seems to work:

web.xml:
--------
<web-app>
    ....
    <context-param>
        <param-name>javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.fmt.localizationContext</param-name>
        <param-value>Messages</param-value>
    </context-param>
    ....
</web-app>

WEB-INF/classes/Messages.properties:
------------------------------------
msg=Messages

WEB-INF/classes/Messages_ru.properties:
---------------------------------------
msg=Messages_ru

fmtlocale.jsp:
--------------
<%@ page contentType="text/plain" %>
<%@ page import="java.util.Locale" %>
<%@ page import="javax.servlet.jsp.jstl.core.Config" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="fmt" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/fmt"; %>

<% Config.set(session, Config.FMT_LOCALE, new Locale("ru")); %>

msg: <fmt:message key="msg"/>

output:
-------
msg: Messages_ru

Is that basically the equivalent of what you're doing?
