I don't see that it changed any comments at all?

I think he means error messages, for example, why errmsg is replaced by
errmsg_plural in the concerned source code line (the following change)

-                errmsg("database with OID %u must be vacuumed before %d
more multixact members are used",
+                errmsg_plural("database with OID %u must be vacuumed
before %d more multixact member is used",
+                              "database with OID %u must be vacuumed
before %d more multixact members are used",
+                       MultiXactState->offsetStopLimit - nextOffset +
nmembers,

Thanks,

You can see a minor change in the "extra line" - member vs. members in the
first and second version, respectively, of essentially the same message.
errmsg_plural() function determines whether to output the singular version
or the plural based on numeric value of the first variadic argument passed
to it. For example, if "%d" in the formatted output turns out be 1, "... 1
multixact members ..." in the output message sounds awkward. So does "...
10 multixact member". Hence the committed change.

Thanks,
