Bug#39440: libc6: Please merge these strings to help localisation.



Package: libc6
Version: 2.1.1-10
Severity: wishlist

Please apply this (untested) patch so that I can use the correct
form of "standard output" in the Finnish message catalog.

("Standard output" alone would be "vakiotuloste" but when used as
an object, it must become "vakiotulostetta".)
