pgsql: Mark the second argument of pg_log as the translatable string in

nls.mk is still missing file_ops.c in GETTEXT_FILES as it contains
some calls to pg_fatal.

Oh, sorry. I was wrongly thinking that the Heikki's recently changes
to nls.mk fixed that....

Fixed. Thanks!

gettext (msgmerge) is unhappy about this because

What pg_basebackup's progress_report() does is have the message in the
translatable part not include the \r; the \r is in a separate fprintf()
call.

Not a fan of this approach, because now this function knows that
pg_log(PG_PROGRESS) is equivalent to printf(). This abstraction is a
bit leaky, isn't it ... Probably not worth sweating about, though.

So could you elaborate your "favorite" approach?

Now pg_log() calls printf() and fflush(stdout). So '\r' is printed after fflush.
It's a bit strange. Maybe we can just replace pg_log() with printf() here.

Another question is; should we output the progress report to stderr rather
than stdout? I thought this because I found that pg_basebackup reports
the progress to stderr.

A better solution from a modularity point of view would be to add a new
function, pg_progress() for this. It would print the line with pg_log()
and then print the \r to the end. Then the caller wouldn't need to know
whether the progress messages are going to stdout, stderr, or somewhere
else entirely.

Another question is; should we output the progress report to stderr rather
than stdout? I thought this because I found that pg_basebackup reports
the progress to stderr.

Yeah, probably. We should go through all the output and figure out where
each kind of message needs to do. Should follow the principle Alvaro
laid out
(/messages/by-id/20150407205320.GN4369@alvh.no-ip.org),
and also make sure it's consistent with pg_basebackup and other tools.
Michael's patch changed some of the logging but we should take a more
holistic look at the situation. And add a comment somewhere explaining
the principle.

Isn't what we are looking for here a common set of frontend-only APIs,
let's say as src/common/logging.c? All the tools we have could use it
without knowing if they output on stdout and stderr.
