+/*
+ * ISC Message Catalog
+ *
+ * Message catalogs aid internationalization of applications by allowing
+ * messages to be retrieved from locale-specific files instead of
+ * hardwiring them into the application. This allows translations of
+ * messages appropriate to the locale to be supplied without recompiling
+ * the application.
+ *
+ * Notes:
+ * It's very important that message catalogs work, even if only the
+ * default_text can be used.
+ *
+ * MP:
+ * The caller must ensure appropriate synchronization of
+ * isc_msgcat_open() and isc_msgcat_close(). isc_msgcat_get()
+ * ensures appropriate synchronization.
+ *
+ * Reliability:
+ * No anticipated impact.
+ *
+ * Resources:
+ * <TBS>
+ *
+ * Security:
+ * No anticipated impact.
+ *
+ * Standards:
+ * None.
