I don't think that will work out so well -- it'd require the declaration
printer etc. to know about all forms of attribute, and in general the
attribute syntax isn't sufficient to know where the attribute should go
(for instance, the 'final' keyword attribute goes at the end of the
declaration, but the '_Noreturn' keyword attribute goes at the start, and
the 'alignas' keyword attribute goes after the identifier).
