Here the localization happens inside of the macro MAKE_LOCALIZED_LABEL, 
you should pull the localization code out otherwise make_strings wont be 
able to extract the text.

Again no chance for make_strings to extract the actual string. This will 
make it very hard to port your application to other languages. The 
localization belongs into the caller.

Just run make_strings in gdb and set a breakpoint on [NSException 
raise], that is the only way to tell.
