These mentions are only in comments and not in actual translations, so I don't
think they risk causing any issues.

$ git grep max_fsm_ |cut -d":" -f 2 |grep -v "^#" | wc -l
0

I don't know enough about the translation workflow to know how these comments
are handled, sending this to pgsql-translators@ might be a better way to reach
the authors working on this.

Translations are managed in an external repo and synced with the main repo at
intervals, so such a commit couldn't have updated the master translation work
files anyways.
