/*
 * Since cgram.y 1.294 from 2021-07-10, lint did not accept declarations that
 * started with __attribute__, due to a newly and accidentally introduced
 * shift/reduce conflict in the grammar.
 *
 * A GCC extension allows statement of the form __attribute__((fallthrough)),
 * thus starting with __attribute__.  This is the 'shift' in the conflict.
 * The 'reduce' in the conflict was begin_type.
 *
 * Before cgram 1.294, the gcc_attribute was placed outside the pair of
 * begin_type/end_type, exactly to resolve this conflict.
 *
 * Conceptually, it made sense to put the __attribute__((unused)) between
 * begin_type and end_type, to make it part of the declaration-specifiers.
 * This change introduced the hidden conflict though.
 *
 * Interestingly, the number of shift/reduce conflicts did not change in
 * cgram 1.294, the conflicts were just resolved differently than before.
 *
 * To prevent this from happening again, make sure that declarations as well
 * as statements can start with gcc_attribute.
