For what I had seen, I'd be happy with the change once a GCC version that handles `__has_attribute` properly is out. That way, there might still be breakage, but there'll be a clear path forwards on getting code fixed. I am not aware of GCC's release plans, but I'd like to think it should probably be possible to get that fixed in time for GCC 11.3, which I would expect to be released in time to flip the default in LLVM 14.

I haven't had to deal with the same things as @jrtc27 though; I am not suggesting that those do not warrant a longer transition time.
