NoQ added a comment.

It still mildly worries me that the attributes aren't truly reusable, as the 
exact meaning of the attribute depends on the domain. In particular, every 
domain is expected to have different approaches to error handling, i.e. a 
function that creates or destroys a handle may fail to, respectively, create or 
destroy the handle, but instead indicate the failure in a domain-specific 
manner, eg. through magical return values or null handle or errno or whatever.

@aaron.ballman, do you think this is a problem? Should we rather go for an 
attribute name that's obviously domain-specific (eg., 
`__attribute__((fuchsia_acquire_handle))`), or is it ok to re-use attributes 
without re-using their exact meaning?
