## Description of problem:
Problems building GnuTLS on mac platform.
The code in crau.h seems to have a logic error, lines 253-261
# ifndef CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED
# if defined(__has_c_attribute)
# if __has_c_attribute (__maybe_unused__)
# define CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED [[__maybe_unused__]]
# endif
# elif defined(__GNUC__)
# define CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED __attribute__((__unused__))
# endif
# endif /* CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED */
In my case when compiling, the code ends up without macro CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED defined.
that generates compiler errors for all the later uses.
I have solved the problem by adding -DCRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED= to the compilation but is would be nice that the code defined an empty macro CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED if it cannot provide an alternative for it.
Could be:
# ifndef CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED
# if defined(__has_c_attribute)
# if __has_c_attribute (__maybe_unused__)
# define CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED [[__maybe_unused__]]
# else
# define CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED
# endif
# elif defined(__GNUC__)
# define CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED __attribute__((__unused__))
# else
# define CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED
# endif
# endif /* CRAU_MAYBE_UNUSED */
