No, any native speaker of English would say "for column %d". Putting
"failed" at the end seems a bit awkward as well, though I can't offhand
see a better phrasing. "picksplit method failed for ..." is *not*
better; it implies there is only one picksplit method for everything,
whereas the point of the message is that the one associated with this
column failed.

Should be "for column %d" also, AFAICS, plus '' -> "" and lowercase
"PickSplit" ... but this message isn't translatable anyway as an elog().
