I am trying to build GNU libc (latest version -- 1.9) and it chokes on
compiling stdio/stdio.h:167 which contains the following line:

	extern __NORETURN void __libc_fatal 
			__P ((__const char *__message));

As it turns out, this line gets expanded into:

	extern __attribute__ ((__volatile__))  void __libc_fatal
			  (__const char *__message)  ;

and it looks like gcc 2.7.x cannot handle __attribute__ keyword (it dies
with a message 'stdio/stdio.h:167: parse error before `void'').

I am using gcc 2.7.2 (and I also tried gcc 2.7.0) on SunOS 4.1.3

Thanks,
Alex
