Description
Ref: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D47413
- Invalid/non-existent/unable to use message catalog file should result in ENOENT, and not in EFTYPE.
- Added detection of several cases of wrong file format due to length [*].
- Update man page.
Patch: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/patch/lib/libc/nls/msgcat.c?id=1176390d2d2bbb1e207c840d1f7a66a6ac1096ff (patch (with fuzz) applies and compiles)
There are some other "upstream changes" to the nls code as well, so cherry-picking this patch vs syncing the nls codebase is a tradeoff probably worth considering...
