If only LC_ALL changed the messages but not LANG you probably have set
LC_MESSAGES to something.

Try "locale", it will tell you what your current settings are, e.g:
|ranma@example.com:~$ locale
|LANG=en_US
|LC_CTYPE=de_DE@example.com
|LC_NUMERIC="en_US"
|LC_TIME="en_US"
|LC_COLLATE="en_US"
|LC_MONETARY="en_US"
|LC_MESSAGES="en_US"
|LC_PAPER="en_US"
|LC_NAME="en_US"
|LC_ADDRESS="en_US"
|LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
|LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"
|LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US"
|LC_ALL=
|ranma@example.com:~$ export LC_ALL=de_DE
|ranma@example.com:~$ locale
|LANG=en_US
|LC_CTYPE="de_DE"
|LC_NUMERIC="de_DE"
|LC_TIME="de_DE"
|LC_COLLATE="de_DE"
|LC_MONETARY="de_DE"
|LC_MESSAGES="de_DE"
|LC_PAPER="de_DE"
|LC_NAME="de_DE"
|LC_ADDRESS="de_DE"
|LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE"
|LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE"
|LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE"
|LC_ALL=de_DE
|ranma@example.com:~$ unset LC_ALL
|ranma@example.com:~$ export LC_MESSAGES=ja_JP
|ranma@example.com:~$ locale
|LANG=en_US
|LC_CTYPE=de_DE@example.com
|LC_NUMERIC="en_US"
|LC_TIME="en_US"
|LC_COLLATE="en_US"
|LC_MONETARY="en_US"
|LC_MESSAGES=ja_JP
|LC_PAPER="en_US"
|LC_NAME="en_US"
|LC_ADDRESS="en_US"
|LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
|LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"
