Bug ID: 114112
Summary: Error message is translatable but inserts untranslated
substring

Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

the function check_loop_binding_expr emits an error message where it inserts a
"context". This "context" comes from the call and is sent as a string not
available for translation. Even if those inserted strings were marked for
translation, it is in general a bad idea to compose a message from smaller
strings in that way if they are to be correctly translated.

one wants a further discussion around this.)
