sparc-rtems-binutils fails building on snowleopard

[mattias.holm@…]

Sparc rtems binutils fails building on snow leopard, it seems that this is a simple issue of a newer gcc being more pedantic about errors, in this case relating to the string translation _("Foo"), which prevents gcc from analysing the formatting in functions this is passed to.

The easy fix would be to disable the specific warning, or the -Werror flag.
