| +Fix unused function error
| +
| +Attempting to build GDB in Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS on x86_64, I ran into warnings
| +that caused the build to fail:
| +
| +binutils-gdb/gdb/gdbsupport/safe-strerror.c:44:1: error: ‘char* select_strerror_r(char*, char*)’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]  select_strerror_r (char *res, char *)
| +
| +The diagnostics macros seem to expand correctly to their respective pragmas,
| +but it doesn't seem to have an effect on the warning. I tried to use the
| +pragmas explicitly and got the same result.
| +
| +ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED works fine in this case, if you put it in both functions,
| +which should fix warnings for both gdb and gdbserver builds.
| +
| +The compiler version is gcc (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.11) 5.4.0 20160609.

PS3, Line 21:

Ok. Let's go with #2 then.

I actually found the PR and the fix here:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64079

Should we at least put a comment in place in case someone tries to put
this particular macro up again?
