(Totally just jumping in here with no context, so I might be totally off
base here.  Check with your doctor before applying to skin, etc.)

message.xml gets copied from etc/ into indra/newview/app_settings during
a build, but sometimes VS doesn't run the custom rules that make it
happen, so message.xml doesn't get copied.  Or maybe the rules were just
lost in translation.  This particular problem was a bit of an internal
bugbear after 1.18's release.

The Mac build uses a totally different system (correctly, it's a bug
that VS doesn't work the same way), so it doesn't have the problem.
