Hi Ask, > In the translation template for bfd [1], very few strings have the > c-format tag which makes gettext able to tell if placeholders (%s, %d, > ...) are mistranslated.

Can this be improved somehow?
I have checked in the attached patch to update the sources in the BFD
library. Other directories (eg ld, gas, etc) will probably also need
an update, but I am leaving this for another time.
