Here's an attempt to do that.  Tested so far by building
aarch64-linux-gnu (which has target attributes) and frv-elf
(which doesn't) with GCC 4.8.

OK if further testing passes?

GCC 5 and earlier applied array-to-pointer decay too early,
which affected the new attribute namespace code.  A reduced
example of the construct that the attribute code uses is:

    struct S { template<__SIZE_TYPE__ N> S(int (&)[N]); };
    struct T { int a; S b; };
    int a[] = { 1 };
    T t = { 1, a };

This was fixed by f85e1317f8ea933f5c615680353bd646f480f7d3
(PR 16333 et al).

This patch tries to add a minimally-invasive workaround.
