[PATCH] "Raw" error messages with zwarning %l

[PATCH] "Raw" error messages with zwarning %l

[Bart Schaefer]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 395 bytes --]

Here's the end result of the discussion (plus a small coding
convention fix in utils.c).

I included a comment about caller responsibility for %l but given that
the only usage has to do with user-supplied strings, in practice
there's nothing the caller can do about it anyway.

I'm also not sure the metafy()+%s change is needed in parse.c, but I
put it there to keep the end behavior the same.
