Genius bugreport again

Here's a Genius bug report again.

#: src/funclib.c:2378
msgid "third argument"

#: src/funclib.c:2328 src/funclib.c:2334
#, c-format
msgid "%s: %s not a reference"

#: src/funclib.c:2383
msgid "fourth argument"

A message design like this, where different pieces of a sentence are
puzzled together by code, is severely broken for localization purposes.
Details are at
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/tutorials/gnome-i18n/developer.html#split-sentences

Please replace this sentence puzzle by messages with full sentences
instead:

msgid "%s: third argument not a reference"

msgid "%s: fourth argument not a reference"
