Description Benno Schulenberg 2006-11-06 21:50:28 UTC
During retranslation to Dutch I've found a few mistakes in libc's messages,
ranging from simple typos to wrong words.  The first patch repairs these.
It also corrects two typos in comments that I noticed along the way, and
gettextizes a forgotten little message.

The second patch makes some of the messages equal to others, from which they
unnecessarily and inconsistently differ, by a word, a letter, or a period.
It also, for consistency, adds a period to some doc strings, and removes it 
from some other messages.

Both hunks in elf/dl-open.c are wrong, the error messages really should mention
dlmopen.  When dlopen calls _dl_open, nsid argument is always either
LM_ID_BASE or __LM_ID_CALLER, while both the _dl_signal_error calls can only
happen when _dl_open is called with some other nsid.

Yes, about those two I wasn't sure, they just looked wrong.
They are removed from the updated patch.

I've checked most change in.  Some needed changes or were wrong/not necessary.
