Warning message when building tst-pthread-getattr.c


I just built the latest glibc with the latest gcc and, when running the
testsuite, got an error.  Has anyone else seen this?  It doesn't look like
the test has changed recently so I am guessing that GCC just got stricter
in its checking.  Should we add a DIAG_IGNORE_NEEDS_COMMENT here?
