It is documented in the GCC 3.2 manual, under the node "Attribute
Syntax", as follows:

  An attribute specifier list may appear after the colon following a
  label, other than a `case' or `default' label.  The only attribute it
  makes sense to use after a label is `unused'.

Perhaps it's buggy in older GCC compilers, though.  Does it fix things
if you change

#if defined (__GNUC_MINOR__) && 2093 <= (__GNUC__ * 1000 + __GNUC_MINOR__)

to

#if defined (__GNUC_MINOR__) && 3002 <= (__GNUC__ * 1000 + __GNUC_MINOR__)

in data/yacc.c?
