Use the printstatus() function from ${.CURDIR}/../fdread/fdutil.c to
give a bit more information about up to 10 errors encountered during formatting (unless -q has been specified, of course). While being here, removed a bitrotten comment in the Makefile, and kill the old Emacs local variable stuff at the end of fdformat.c that's no longer useful anway.
