>Description:
g++ is crashing when printing error messages from fr.po (no crash when LANG=C):

test_assembly.C: Dans function « int main() »:
test_assembly.C:593: no match pour l'opérateur «
erreur interne de compilateur: erreur pour rapporter une routine ré-entée
SVP soumettre un rapport complet d'anomalies,
avec le source pré-traité si cela est approprié.

 Its looks like it is a bad format character in the translated string which causes the crash.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
I guess it is coming from here:

fr.po, row 13127:
#: cp/call.c:2845   
msgid "%s for `%s %T' operator" 
msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%t [%T]»" 


should be replaced by 
msgstr "%s pour l'opérateur «%s [%T]»"

Synopsis: g++ crash with french localisation

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed

State-Changed-Why:
    This is a known problem. There are already (at least) two 
    instances of this in the bug database. The solution is
    known, but unfortunately has not been implemented.
    
    I think I saw a new french translation recently which
    might fix this particular problem, once it is put into
    use.
    
    Thanks for your report anyway.
    W.
