Hi,

Several error messages in some of the utilities say things
like "reading %s".  They sound like progress messages, and
translators might be tempted to translate them as if they
said "busy reading %s" -- whereas I think they are trying
to say "error while reading %s".

Attached patch suggests improvements for a bunch of those
messages.

Even outside the translation context, this is a net improvement.

cmd_old: accessing 'file': Permission denied
cmd_new: failed to access 'file': Permission denied

I'll apply this in a while.

thanks!
Pádraig.
