general/g.message/main.c:

    else if (percent->answer) {
        int i, n, s;
        i = n = s = -1;
        sscanf(message->answer, "%d %d %d", &i, &n, &s);
        if (s == -1) 
            G_fatal_error(_("Unable to parse input message"));
        G_percent(i, n, s);
        fprintf(stderr, "\n");
    }

I really don't think that fprintf() belongs there; it should just call
G_percent(), without adding any "enhancements" of its own.
