Actually, false alarm. The empty translation string seems to mean "use
the original string":
$ export LANG=ja_JP.utf8
$ ./scripts/faddr2line ~/k/vmlinux type_show+0x10/45
type_show+0x10/0x2d:
type_show at drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c:213
So your previous patch which checks for a space looks good after all :-)
