Note that your commit message in pu still says
- append each line in the result to localization of the "hint: " prefix.
even though you now fixed that to be more general.
(It also has a very weird case of mixed indentation when I view it with
'git show':
advise(_("Please rename %s to something else"), gostak);
advise(_("so that we can avoid distimming %s unnecessarily."), doshes);
Apparently the first line is indented with a tab, and the second with 8
spaces.)
