Handle attributes for function pointers by checking the compiler version.

Handle attributes for function pointers the same way we handle
attributes for functions, by explicitly checking for the compiler
version with #if rather than with a configure script check.  That's one
fewer thing that, if you're not using autoconf, has to be done in some
other fashion.

While we're at it, put NORETURN in the right place to have it work with
Microsoft Visual Studio as well as various UN*X compilers.
