The above two hunks make all the difference in the ease of reading
the remainder of the function.  Very good.

This will need to become test_i18ngrep once the error message is
made translatable, but it is correct for now.  I personally think
there is no need to check "actual" or "err", though---just running
cat-file under test_must_fail should be sufficient.

Thanks, will queue.
