Oh, I see: the translated message can use that form, but the original
need not. Okay.
Are you planning to tackle any of the other elog-related stuff that's
been discussed in the past? (Automatic file/linenumber information,
relabeling the set of severity codes, that sort of thing?) Sooner or
later we're going to have to bite the bullet and edit every elog
instance in the system. I'm just wondering if that flag day is implicit
in this change, or if we can put it off awhile longer.
