[Bug rtl-optimization/79858] New: Explain to translators what %smode means


https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=79858

            Bug ID: 79858
           Summary: Explain to translators what %smode means
           Product: gcc
           Version: 7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: rtl-optimization
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: roland.illig at gmx dot de
  Target Milestone: ---

from expmed.c:

sorry ("reverse storage order for %smode", GET_MODE_NAME (mode));

What values can the placeholder %s take in the above diagnostic? Is it even a
diagnostic? There should be a /* TRANSLATORS: ... */ comment above that line
explaining this.

Just in case that the %s placeholder can influence the grammar of the sentence
in languages other than English, this diagnostic must be rethought completely.
