ngettext support
binutils has lacked proper pluralization of output messages for a long time, for example, readelf will display information about a section that "contains 1 entries" or "There are 1 section headers". Fixing this properly requires us to use ngettext, because other languages have different rules to English. This patch defines macros for ngettext and friends to handle builds with --disable-nls, and tidies the existing nls support. I've redefined gettext rather than just defining "_" as dgettext in bfd and opcodes in case someone wants to use gettext there (which might conceivably happen with generated code). bfd/ * sysdep.h: Formatting, comment fixes. (gettext, ngettext): Redefine when ENABLE_NLS. (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS. (_): Define using gettext. (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Use safer "do nothing". * hosts/alphavms.h (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Likewise. (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS. opcodes/ * opintl.h: Formatting, comment fixes. (gettext, ngettext): Redefine when ENABLE_NLS. (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS. (_): Define using gettext. (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Use safer "do nothing". binutils/ * sysdep.h (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Use safer "do nothing". (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS. gas/ * asintl.h (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Use safer "do nothing". (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS. gold/ * system.h (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Use safer "do nothing". (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS. ld/ * ld.h (textdomain, bindtextdomain): Use safer "do nothing". (ngettext, dngettext, dcngettext): Define when !ENABLE_NLS.
