you mean that the error() implementation in gnulib doesn't support it?
That would be bad, as the error messages are often translated, so
support to positional parameters is essential there.

Or you just mean that understanding the error() implementation in gnulib
won't be easy.  I haven't tried, but I guess this is true.

Have a nice day,
