#[unsafe(no_mangle)] erroneously accepted inside thread_local! #146557
Description
I tried this code:
thread_local! {
#[unsafe(no_mangle)]
static FOO: () = const { () };
}I expected to see this happen:
error: const items should never be `#[no_mangle]`
(The macro expands to a const item that has the #[unsafe(no_mangle)] applied to it.)
Instead, this happened:
It compiled successfully. The attribute is ignored
