I found out what is causing this bug...
It turns out that the file 
/usr/share/locale-langpack/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-terminal.mo does not have a 
msgid "Terminal". You can look at the contents of this file with the command 
below:
$ msgunfmt /usr/share/locale-langpack/pt_BR/LC_MESSAGES/gnome-terminal.mo | less

When 'gettext' tries to find the msgstr that corresponds to the msgid
"Terminal" in the 'pt_BR' directory and it does not find it, it falls
back to the 'pt' directory and uses that translation instead.

I discovered the issue by running 'strace' against 'gettext':
$ strace gettext gnome-terminal Terminal

I assume the "Mouse" translation bug is caused by a similar problem, but
I haven't checked yet.
