Obviously noone thought about strerror() returning non-ASCII stuff. The correct way to write the above would be something like: Bufbyte *internal_strerror; TO_INTERNAL_FORMAT (C_STRING, strerror (saverrno), C_STRING_ALLOCA, internal_strerror, Qnative); error ("IO error reading %s: %s", XSTRING_DATA (filename), internal_strerror); Even better, the code should be modified to use report_file_error() or one of its relatives (if possible.)
