You can do:

   std::string info = string_printf (_("`%s' Ada exception hanlder"),
                                     c->excep_string);

   ....
   
   uiout->text (info.c_str ());

and then you no longer have to worry about explicitly
calling xfree, or, leaking if uiout->text() throws
(which it can, if it paginates and the user aborts, for
example).

But there's also uiout->field_fmt(), which may be
better here if the field is supposed to be an MI attribute:

   uiout->field_fmt ("somename", 
                     _("`%s' Ada exception hanlder"), 
                     c->excep_string);

Also, typo "hanlder" in format string.  :-)

I haven't really read the description of the command / use case,
but this sounds very much like the existing "catch catch"?

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
