Testcase gcc.dg/attr-invalid.c started failing on mingw32 with
http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?root=gcc&view=rev&rev=125975
In particular, this delta
* tree.c (handle_dll_attribute): Set DECL_VISIBILITY on the
imported or exported declaration, including type declarations.
made these TYPE_DECL's valid:
# 88 "attr-invalid.c"
typedef int dllimport_type __attribute__((dllimport));
typedef int (*dllimport_fntype)(void) __attribute__((dllimport));
Prior to that revision the attribute was valid only on FUNCTION_DECLS's
and VAR_DECL's
However, although there is no warning, the attribute is ignored
typedef int dllimport_type __attribute__((dllimport));
extern dllimport_type foo;
int bar () { return foo; }
gives
_bar:
pushl %ebp
movl %esp, %ebp
movl _foo, %eax
popl %ebp
ret
