#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_GCC_VAR_ATTRIBUTE(ATTRIBUTE)
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   This macro checks if the compiler supports one of GCC's variable
#   attributes; many other compilers also provide variable attributes with
#   the same syntax. Compiler warnings are used to detect supported
#   attributes as unsupported ones are ignored by default so quieting
#   warnings when using this macro will yield false positives.
#
#   The ATTRIBUTE parameter holds the name of the attribute to be checked.
#
#   If ATTRIBUTE is supported define HAVE_VAR_ATTRIBUTE_<ATTRIBUTE>.
#
#   The macro caches its result in the ax_cv_have_var_attribute_<attribute>
#   variable.
#
#   The macro currently supports the following variable attributes:
#
#    aligned
#    cleanup
#    common
#    nocommon
#    deprecated
#    mode
#    packed
#    tls_model
#    unused
#    used
#    vector_size
#    weak
#    dllimport
#    dllexport
#    init_priority
#
#   Unsupported variable attributes will be tested against a global integer
#   variable and without any arguments given to the attribute itself; the
#   result of this check might be wrong or meaningless so use with care.
