This will create a problem for the recent versions of sparse which
support __has_attribute() because sparse falsely pretends to support
this attribute while, to play nice with -Wdeclaration-after-statement,
it needs some adaptation to the parsing (it's actually seen not as a 
statement but as a declaration).  I'll see to fix it this evening.
