This could use fputs() too, moving the stderr to the last argument.
I think the _() thingies around the strings are for gettext
(https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Mark-Keywords.html).
This would break it if there are existing translations, since the
msgids change.
More practically, I doubt anyone is translating these tools. IMO we
should remove the gettext stuff unless we find traces of translations.

Whether stuff is translated seems inconsistent too.

The unrelated gettext stuff aside:
