Correct. What I needed and Ralf supplied was a German translation of
the english string. I must have been unclear in my request.

It turns out this translation seems to have the action varible for all
of the langauges, not just German. It was added in checkin 4083 in Feb
2009 and changed in June of 2009 to the current string.

Not sure how it ended up being incorrect in so many languages.

I'll have to open an issue for it and check to see what happens in the
i18n subsystem when the printf string generates an error. Hopefully it
will just return the untranslated string.

Thanks for confirming my analysis of the issue. (Feel free to run
through the locale file for other issues if you wish. There are plenty
of fuzzy translation 8-)).
