There is no way one could possibly use this header file in combination
with C++ code. The problem is that in C11 the `noreturn' macro expands
to the `_Noreturn' function specifier, while in C++11 the `noreturn'
keyword is an attribute.
So in C11 you have to write:
noreturn void exit(int status);
While in C++11 you have to write:
[[noreturn]] void exit(int status);
It is impossible to #define noreturn for C++ in such a way that it
allows both conventions.
By intentionally breaking this header this way, we prevent people from
using this header in their C++<11 sources.
Even though these header files make little sense to me, they are part of
the standard. By including these header files, you can simply use
`alignas', `alignof' and `noreturn' instead of the underscore-prefixed
versions.
