Use __VA_ARGS__ for all of error's arguments

Matt Kraai · gitster · commit 9798f7e5f948 · 2013-02-08T08:22:28.000-08:00
QNX 6.3.2 uses GCC 2.95.3 by default, and GCC 2.95.3 doesn't remove the
comma if the error macro's variable argument is left out.

Instead of testing for a sufficiently recent version of GCC, make
__VA_ARGS__ match all of the arguments.
