You can edit the properties application launcher for gcalctool.
In the field command there should be displayed: gcalctool
Replace it with: sh -c 'LANG= gcalctool'
To the properties you get through the menu editor (right click on the panel menu)
Alternatively you can start gcalctool from a terminal with: LANG= gcalctool
