Testcase: missing noreturn attribute on std::abort & std::exit


G++ doesn't know that std::abort and std::exit are noreturn functions.
If we can assume that they are, this fact results in missed
optimization opportunities and spurious warnings as demonstrated by
the attached testcase.  I should get zero warnings but instead I get:

 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C: In function `int foo2(int)':
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C:28: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C: In function `int foo4(int)':
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C:50: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C: In function `void foo6()':
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C:60: warning: `noreturn' function does return
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C: In function `void foo8()':
 > g++.dg/warn/noreturn1.C:70: warning: `noreturn' function does return


Note we probably have the same problem with other attributes on system
functions like attribute malloc on std::malloc, etc.  (I haven't
verified that however.)

I don't know how to fix this, but in the mean time ok to install the
test?
