>Description:
There are atleast two messages in the gcc catalog which are marked as c-format, but are not intended to be used with printf. As a result, msgfmt rejects the French translation. The specific examples are

#: f/lex.c:427
#, c-format
msgid "Hex escape at %0 out of range"
msgstr "échappement hexadécimal à %0 hors gamme"

#: f/lex.c:460
#, fuzzy, c-format
msgid "Escape sequence at %0 out of range for character"
msgstr "séquence d'échappement hors gamme pour le type caractère"
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the current potfile with the given French translations (via msgfmt -c -v).
>Fix:
Please add a comment of /* xgettext:no-c-format */ just above the line that contains these messages.
