How can I change the name "Rubbish Bin" to "Trash" (or "Recycle")

A recent update (Ubuntu 10.04) has caused my Trash bin to be renamed to "Rubbish Bin".. I don't like this new name. How can I change it?

I've tried: gconf-editor -> apps/nautilus/desktop -> trash_icon_name

but that didn't work.

Also, $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs has no entry for the Trash directory...

There is an option to select the interface language at the login screen. I've just tried loggin out and selecting Australian English, and now have the 'Rubbish Bin' in Nautilus. Select English USA and you should get 'Trash'.
