-## Helper methods added for checking GNU style attributes: __attribute__(...)
-
-A set of new helpers have been added to the C and C++ compiler objects for
-checking GNU style function attributes. These are not just simpler to use, they
-may be optimized to return fast on compilers that don't support these
-attributes. Currently this is true for MSVC.
-
-```meson
-cc = meson.get_compiler('c')
-if cc.has_function_attribute('aligned')
- add_project_arguments('-DHAVE_ALIGNED', language : 'c')
-endif
-```
-
-Would replace code like:
-
-```meson
-if cc.compiles('''into foo(void) __attribute__((aligned(32)))''')
- add_project_arguments('-DHAVE_ALIGNED', language : 'c')
-endif
-```
-
-Additionally, a multi argument version has been added:
-
-```meson
-foreach s : cc.get_supported_function_attributes(['hidden', 'alias'])
- add_project_arguments('-DHAVE_@0@'.format(s.to_upper()), language : 'c')
-endforeach
-```
