Yup, that indeed was what I envisioned in the "Possible future
directions" comment in the cover letter.  It might not even be bad
to do

    #define FOREACH_FSCK_MSG_ID(FUNC) \
	/* fatal errors */ \
	FUNC(NUL_IN_HEADER, FATAL, N_("NUL byte exists in the object header.")) \
	FUNC(UNTERMINATED_HEADER, FATAL, N_("Missing end-of-line in the object header.")) \
	/* errors */ \
	FUNC(BAD_DATE, ERROR, N_("Invalid date format in an author/committer line.")) \
	...

as some of the users of the macro may have use of the translatable
messages themselves.
