[Bug c++/28554] New: Use of __attribute__ ((constructor)) on functions issues confusing error

["fjahanian at apple dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

In this test case, g++ issues a diagnostics which is confusing. If use of
__attribute__ ((constructor))  on a function with argument list other than
'void' is illegal, it should say so:

__attribute__ ((constructor))
static void Initialize(int argc, char *argv[], char *envp[]) {
}

% g++ -c ctor.C
ctor.C: In function '(static initializers for ctor.C)':
ctor.C:2: error: too few arguments to function 'void Initialize(int, char**,
char**)'
ctor.C:3: error: at this point in file
