/* Copied from the Win32-2.13.4.0 package, but renamed `getErrorMessage` to
 * `_ansi_terminal_getErrorMessage`, in order to avoid problems with duplicate
 * symbols in GHC's object files. See:
 * https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/23365.

/* There's two ways we can generate error messages - with different tradeoffs:
 * If we do a function call, we have to use a static buffer.
 * If we use a macro and ANSI C's string splicing, we have to use constant
 * strings - and accept a certain amount of overhead from inserting the
 * boilerplate text.
 *
 * Why the concern about performance? Error messages are only generated
 * in exceptional situations    -- sof 9/98
 *
 * sof 9/98 : Removed use of non-standard (and wimpy :-) snprintf().
