        <pre>Here is a function that I have reduced from some real-life code that I am
unable to compile with -Wimplicit-fallthrough.


% cat foo.cc
template<bool param>
int fun(int i)
{
  switch (i)
    {
    case 1:
      if (param)
        return 3;
      // [[clang::fallthrough]];
    case 2:
      return 4;
    default:
      return 5;
    }
}

template int fun<true>(int);
template int fun<false>(int);

% clang++-3.9 -std=c++11 -Wimplicit-fallthrough foo.cc -cfoo.cc:10:5: warning:
unannotated fall-through between switch labels [-Wimplicit-fallthrough]
    case 2:

Unfortunately, inserting [[clang::fallthrough]] gives a different error:
