This warning is supposed to detect cases like 

void
bar (char *d, unsigned n, const char *f, va_list va)
{
  vsnprintf (d, n, f, va);
}

where the enclosing function is a candidate for the "format" attribute.  The
code assumed that current_function_decl is never null -- a reasonable
assumption since you can't have file-scope function calls in C, but as shown
below, this assumption can be fooled using typeof.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux, ok for trunk?
