Excuse me, but in what language is this ``reasonable''?  In any
language where ``suspended'' needs to be modified according to the
gender (masculine, feminine, etc.) of the corresponding noun, the
translator will have no hope of getting the translation right without
reading the code and understanding what it does.  So much for
``reasonable''.
