[Bug java/23184] New: I18n bug in gjavah.c


gcc/java/gjavah.c contains the statements

  fprintf (stderr, _("Try '" TOOLNAME " --help' for more information.\n"));

The tool extracting strings for translation is fooled by this (not
surprisingly).  The current po files contains the strings "Try '", " --help' for
more information.\n", for translation.  But at run-time, "gettext" (a.k.a. "_")
will of course be called with the merged string.

There is one more example in the file where string concatenation with TOOLNAME
breaks i18n in the same way.

  printf (_("Usage: " TOOLNAME " [OPTION]... CLASS...\n\n"));
