Thanks.  However, i18n changes are never trivial, IMHO.

I agree with Andreas here: it would be very hard to translate this
message correctly.  Perhaps this message should have been rewritten as
2 different messages: one when msg is NULL, the other when it isn't.

Does xgettext support strings broken between 2 lines?

Do we really want to translate the "record" part here?  Could you
please tell what would the string produced by this call to
ada_to_fixed_value look like in English?
