While running gcc 2.5.2, I get an error trying to compile
__attribute__. Is __attribute__ something that has 'gone away'?

If I use gcc 2.4.5, it seems to be able to parse it.

Can someone also tell me what the __attribute__ is supposed to
be doing? It shows up in the form of:

    int somefct()
       __attribute__ (...)

Cheers,
Cal Page
