I had no real idea where else to put these. I did toss them into
LYMessages_en.h because that seemed to be where everything else is. 

As soon as someone tells me what I can do with my user-visible patches to

(And on a side-note, perhaps full internationalization might be considered
to be a large enough change to merit bumping up to (at least) 2.9...)
