Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation.

Agreed. Looks like we don't break localization rules if we have
something like below, which is done in similar way for a log message
in heap_vacuum_rel(): msgfmt = _("automatic aggressive vacuum to
prevent wraparound of table \"%s.%s.%s\": index scans: %d\n");

if (am_walsender)
appendStringInfo(&logmsg, _("replication connection
authorized: user=%s"),
port->user_name);
else
appendStringInfo(&logmsg, _("connection authorized: user=%s"),
port->user_name);

if (!am_walsender)
appendStringInfo(&logmsg, _(" database=%s"), port->database_name);

if (port->application_name != NULL)
appendStringInfo(&logmsg, _(" application_name=%s"),
port->application_name);

#ifdef USE_SSL
if (port->ssl_in_use)
appendStringInfo(&logmsg, _(" SSL enabled (protocol=%s,
cipher=%s, bits=%d, compression=%s)"),
be_tls_get_version(port),
be_tls_get_cipher(port),
be_tls_get_cipher_bits(port),
be_tls_get_compression(port) ? _("on") : _("off"));
#endif
#ifdef ENABLE_GSS
if (be_gssapi_get_princ(port))
appendStringInfo(&logmsg, _(" GSS (authenticated=%s,
encrypted=%s, principal=%s)"),
be_gssapi_get_auth(port) ? _("yes") : _("no"),
be_gssapi_get_enc(port) ? _("yes") : _("no"),
be_gssapi_get_princ(port));
#endif

ereport(LOG, errmsg_internal("%s", logmsg.data));
