Shouldn't we use the more-standard _Noreturn for this sort of thing? cdefs.h defines _Noreturn for pre-C11 GCCs.The attribute seems much more widely used in glibc .c files at present.
Sure, but that habit predates C11. Now that we have a standard way to say "this function does not return" it's surely better to use the standard way, at least for new code and arguably even for old code.
