These slots used to hold key-shortcut data, but have been obsolete since
Emacs-21.
+** Emacs no longer downcases the first letter of a system diagnostic
+when signaling a file error. For example, it now reports "Permission
+denied" instead of "permission denied". The old behavior was problematic
+in languages like German where downcasing rules depend on grammar.
