ld einfo positional arg support
To allow translators to reorder values in translated strings. This should mean that all binutils messages now have support for reordering. Note to translators: Not all % letters take arguments, so for example the following only has two arguments, the two %s strings. "%P%F: output format %s cannot represent section called %s: %E\n" You could reorder this if you liked to: "%P%F: %E: section %2$s cannot be represented in output format %1$s\n" einfo lacks support for flags, field width, precision and length modifier (apart from %ld and %lu) so don't try to use them in translations. Both ld and bfd lack support to use a positional arg twice. These features could be added if needed.. * ldmisc.c (vfinfo): Support up to 9 positional args.
