I think the idea with this was to unify the strings for grub_dprintf calls; your patch goes a bit further and also puts other sort of strings to share the same variable. I think that's a bit dangerous, since changes intended for one use of the variable could collaterally affect the rest in subtle ways. And it's not that useful in code size anyway. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
