Are the attributes on this alias ever considered in calls to it?
If not (and assuming there's a way to tell, which I think there
should be but haven't verified it) the warning could be relaxed
to only trigger for those that are.  I think those would be
either aliases declared in headers, or those with the TREE_USED
bit set.
