[patch] Misleading configure error


[This time with American spelling]

When gcc is configured with --enable-languages=ada on a system that doesn't 
have the necessary prerequisites the following error occurs:

"The following requested languages were not found: ada
The available languages are: c,ada,c++,f95,java,objc,treelang"

Which doesn't make any sense at all.

The patch below rephrases this message so that it makes sense both in this 
case and when --enable-languages=wibble is specified

Ok?
