Hot deployed language hooks do not override default language keys unless the language file include both the language code and the country code. For example, if a hook with Language_en.properties will not override the default language keys, however, a Language_en_US.properties file will work property. In order to for the language hook to work, the server must be restarted.

This bug fix, allows hot deployed language hooks without a country code to properly override the default language keys.
