Comment:
The patch looks fine for me, TR_MARK is used to translate the static. It
doesn't do anything on the code size, but it marks the strings so they end
up in the catalog.
As for the string compositing, the simplest way is to use positional
markers in the % escapes.
Like this : TR("Physical Memory: %1$s%2$s"), bytes, label. This means
"take arg 1 (bytes) firs, and arg 2 next to it. If the translator wants to
get the reverse way, he translates the string with "Physical Memory:
%2$s%1$s". Your code is technically perfectly fine but less useable for
translators in some languages.
