"Could not do task %s because of condition %s\n"

(the extra arg to printf is ignored). If someone needed to translate to
a language that went the other way, they could do this:

"A condition %0s%s prevented doing task %s\n"

"A condition %2$s prevented doing task %1$s\n"

and so on. I'm definitely not proud of this gross hack.
