Prior to that, those two strings were on two different lines but with
no comma betwen them -- so effectively the same as now.  Changing it
as you suggest would change the offsets in the array of the following
string pointers, which I suspect will break the debugging code that
uses it.

I would rather not take this change.  OTOH, perhaps you could submit a
patch that simply remove the second quoted string from the single line?
