Fix .pot merging for singular/plural message


It appears xgettext, when used to merge .pot files as in exgettext,
cannot handle the same message appearing both as an ordinary message
for translation and as a singular form in a singular/plural pair.

The messages "candidate is:" and "candidates are:" appeared like that
in the C++ front end.  This patch fixes the exgettext failure by
moving one use to ngettext (the other is using inform_n).

Bootstrapped with no regressions on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.  Applied
to mainline.

	* pt.c (most_specialized_class): Use ngettext to determine
	"candidates are:" / "candidate is" message.
