If we don't revert r9691, it is moot anyway. The problem with expanding
string constant macros is that the translation will be platform dependent
if the string constant is it. So you have to modify the gettext runtime as
well. As I pointed out earlier, GNU gettext already did that, but only for
the C99 <inttypes.h> macros.
