I did try using that instead. The problem is that these strings are used at the
call-site as format strings (for the logged message), and I run into trouble
with the `format` attribute on the logging function — I can’t use the
`__NSString__` style because the parameter isn’t an NSString anymore, but I
can’t use the `__printf__` style because that doesn’t allow `%@`. :(

It’s not in Clang’s list of attributes, although it is in GCC’s, so I assume
Clang doesn’t support it.
