  30    For ease of writing code which uses GCC extensions but needs to be
  31    portable to other compilers, we provide the GCC_VERSION macro that
  32    simplifies testing __GNUC__ and __GNUC_MINOR__ together, and various
  33    wrappers around __attribute__.  Also, __extension__ will be #defined
  34    to nothing if it doesn't work.  See below.  */
