bug #63630: xgettext should emit a diagnostic when a singular/plural format string uses different types for the same argument

Sat 07 Jan 2023 04:56:53 PM UTC, original submission:   In the attached readelf.c (from GNU binutils 2.39.90), lines 11554 and 11555, the type of the second argument is contradictory. xgettext should not be silent about this.
