This message was obscured sometime before 9.4 (I just checked).
So it's been a while - wasn't the vileopts change.
I could dig further and see, but that's still a while ago.

However, since the string's still there, I'm reasonably sure it was
unintentional - just surprised that it took a while to notice.

I've made changes in my ongoing fixes to restore those in the
normal flow - will see how those work out.
