Assuming there's no technical reason not to, can someone say what would
be involved in adding relevant attributes (at least function ones) like
those for C? I'm thinking particularly of target_clones, but others
probably make sense.

explicitly.

At least optimization-related ones could be useful, and possibly others.
I haven't made a list, but could do.

I noticed other attributes have been added now. What happened to
target_clones, in particular? (Thanks for working on it.)
