According to Micah Cowan on 10/25/2007 10:13 AM:
> + /* TRANSLATORS: Servname and ai_socktype are formal parameter names,
> + and should not be translated. */
> { EAI_SERVICE, N_("Servname not supported for ai_socktype") },
Would it perhaps be worth rendering this as:
_("`Servname' not supported for `ai_socktype'")
further emphasizing the literalness of the parameter names?
