--- Comment #2 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Works fine with the C compiler, for the C++ compiler we ICE:

... lots of errors ...
t.c:18:5: error: No dispatcher found for align-stringops
 int foo(void) { return 1; }
     ^
t.c:187:20: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
       result = foo();
                    ^

you cannot query for acceptable values by re-annotating the same decl.

GCC 4.7 happily says

...
t.c:176:5: error: redefinition of 'int foo()'
t.c:2:5: error: 'int foo()' previously defined here
t.c: At global scope:
t.c:178:13: error: attribute(target("avx256-split-unaligned-store")) is unknown
t.c: In function 'int foo()':
t.c:178:5: error: redefinition of 'int foo()'
t.c:2:5: error: 'int foo()' previously defined here
t.c: At global scope:
t.c:180:13: error: attribute(target("rtm")) is unknown
t.c: In function 'int foo()':
t.c:180:5: error: redefinition of 'int foo()'
t.c:2:5: error: 'int foo()' previously defined here

and does not ICE.

Google folks - please have a look.
