C99 mandates concatenation of adjacent string literals into one, GCC 
and Sun Studio both do so. So you could write the above as:

        if (dp == &notable) {
                /* BEGIN CSTYLED */
                printf("Manufacturer is unknown because of the"
                       "orange forum embargo.\n");
                printf("As the orange forum likes to get money"
                       "for recent information,\n");
                printf("it may be that this media does not use"
                       "illegal manufacturer coding.\n");
                /* END CSTYLED */
        }

Or you could do:

static const char orange_warn_str[] =
"Manufacturer is unknown because of the orange forum embargo.\n"
"As the orange forum likes to get money for recent information,\n"
<etc>;

.

.
        if (dp == &notable)
                printf(orange_warn_str);
