It seems to me that the series of messages discussing the origin of
this term have missed a more important point -- what is such an
obscure term doing in a message in the first place? Error and
informative messages SHOULD NOT require several hundred (?)
messages to clarify their meaning. Imaging if this had been an
ERROR message!
