# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_GCC_STMT_ATTRIBUTE(ATTRIBUTE)
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# This macro checks if the compiler supports one of GCC's statement
# attributes; many other compilers also provide statement 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_STMT_ATTRIBUTE_<ATTRIBUTE>.
#
# The macro caches its result in the ax_cv_have_stmt_attribute_<attribute>
# variable.
#
# The macro currently supports the following variable attributes:
