TRANS @c Okay. Since you are dying to know, I'll tell you.
TRANS @c This is a joke, obviously. There is a children's song which begins,
TRANS @c "Old McDonald had a farm, e-i-e-i-o." Every time I see the (real)
TRANS @c errno macro EIO, I think about that song. Probably most of my
TRANS @c compatriots who program on Unix do, too. One of them must have stayed
TRANS @c up a little too late one night and decided to add it to Hurd or Glibc.
TRANS @c Whoever did it should be castigated, but it made me laugh.

TRANS @c "bought the farm" means "died". -jtobey

TRANS @c Translators, please do not translate this litteraly, translate it into
TRANS @c an idiomatic funny way of saying that the computer died.
[ERR_REMAP (EIEIO)] = N_("Computer bought the farm"),
