   Similarly, on Cygwin, standard include files contain declarations like
     void __cdecl abort (void) __attribute__ ((noreturn));
   "#define noreturn _Noreturn" would cause this declaration to be rewritten
   to the invalid
     void __cdecl abort (void) __attribute__ ((__attribute__ ((__noreturn__))));

   Instead, define noreturn to empty, so that such declarations are rewritten to
     __declspec () void abort (void);
   or
     void __cdecl abort (void) __attribute__ (());
   respectively.  This gives up on noreturn's advice to the compiler but at
   least it is valid code.  */
