How do I set the Subclipse/Eclipse date format on OS X?

Question

Using the Subclipse plugin (1.4.5) for Eclipse (3.4.1, OS X) adds some subversion metadata to the file navigator pane, including the modified date. Unfortunately this date is in m/d/y format, when I would prefer it to be in d/m/y.

Subclipse may be using Eclipse for the date formatting, but I don't recall having seen any other instances of m/d/y (other date locations in Eclipse all seem to include the full month name). In any case I haven't been able to find a way of setting the format in either Eclipse or Subclipse settings.
