# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_GCC_VAR_ATTRIBUTE(ATTRIBUTE)
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# This macro checks if the compiler supports one of GCC's variable
# attributes; many other compilers also provide variable attributes with
# the same syntax. Compiler warnings are used to detect supported
# attributes as unsupported ones are ignored by default so quieting
# warnings when using this macro will yield false positives.
#
# The ATTRIBUTE parameter holds the name of the attribute to be checked.
#
# If ATTRIBUTE is supported define HAVE_VAR_ATTRIBUTE_<ATTRIBUTE>.
#
# The macro caches its result in the ax_cv_have_var_attribute_<attribute>
# variable.
#
# The macro currently supports the following variable attributes:
#
# aligned
# cleanup
# common
# nocommon
# deprecated
# mode
# packed
# tls_model
# unused
# used
# vector_size
# weak
# dllimport
# dllexport
# init_priority
#
# Unsupported variable attributes will be tested against a global integer
# variable and without any arguments given to the attribute itself; the
# result of this check might be wrong or meaningless so use with care.

dnl provided but only outputs a warning, so accept the attribute
dnl only if no warning were issued.
