Why does -Wabi-tag complain when -std=c++03?


I'm working on some test cases to try and understand "GCC5 and the
C++11 ABI", http://developerblog.redhat.com/2015/02/05/gcc5-and-the-c11-abi/.

In the test program below, why does -Wabi-tag trigger a warning with
the std::string when using -std=c++03?

Thanks in advance.

$ gcc --version

$ cat test.cxx
#include <string>

std::string foo __attribute__ ((visibility ("default")));
std::string bar __attribute__ ((visibility ("default")));


$ g++ -g3 -O2 -Wabi-tag -shared test.cxx -o test.so
