# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_GCC_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE(ATTRIBUTE)
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# This macro checks if the compiler supports one of GCC's type
# attributes; many other compilers also provide type 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_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE_<ATTRIBUTE>.
#
# The macro caches its result in the ax_cv_have_type_attribute_<attribute>
# variable.
#
# The macro currently supports the following type attributes:
#
# transparent_union
#
# Unsupported type attributes will cause an error.
#
# LICENSE
#
# AX_GCC_TYPE_ATTRIBUTE is nearly identical to the AX_GCC_VAR_ATTRIBUTE
# macro, by Gabriele Svelto:
