This is not a useful bug report.  You have extracted some lines, but 
without any explanation of why you think something is wrong with most of 
them.  If you think different things are wrong with different messages, 
each such problem should have its own issue filed as messages in different 
parts of the compiler are maintained by different people.  So file 
separate issues for each distinct problem in a distinct part of the 
compiler, making clear exactly why you think something is wrong.  If you 
think there is a typo, indicate what word you think is wrong and what you 
think it should be instead.

What makes you think gcc-internal-format is wrong here?  Both %' and %qE 
are GCC-specific formats (the former indicating that English messages 
should use an apostrophe if LC_CTYPE supports it - so it should not be 
used in translations, only in English messages - and the latter indicating 
that the format argument is an identifier and the output is quoted - so 
%qE should appear in the translations).
