[Bug c++/18069] New: Contradicting type and variable attributes (possible regression)

[markus at oberhumer dot com]

While playing around with contradicting type and variable attributes I may have
stumbled across a g++ 3.4/4.0 regression.

Here is a short example - see the attachment for full details.

typedef struct {
    char dummy;
} type01c_t
__attribute__((aligned(8)))
__attribute__((aligned(4)));


In any case, some documentation is clearly needed for this and similar
attributes cases, and a warning also seems reasonable (at -Wall level).
