Attached is my draft of translated strings you mentioned to Russian.
Some strings I borrowed from glibc, but only few of them (things like
"Broken pipe" and similar). Certain translations may be inaccurate, but
mostly if I did not know context I did an additional quick research by
grepping man pages. I think this should be additionally reviewed by
russian subscribers.

File compiles with msgfmt but I did not tested it. I will do when I
will establish a locale kvm machine to test and finally fix my locale
issue.

Let me know if additional places in libc need to be translated.
