String literals
---------------
-Irix6 "cc -n32" and OSF4 "cc" have problems with constant string
-initializers with parens around it, e.g.
-
-const char string[] = ("A string");
-
-This is unfortunate since this is what the GNU gettext macro N_
-produces. You need to find a different way to code it.
-
Some compilers like MSVC++ have fairly low limits on the maximum
length of a string literal; 509 is the lowest we've come across. You
may need to break up a long printf statement into many smaller ones.
