      Enable __attribute__((cold)) only for GCC 4.3 and later.
      This attribute was introduced in bzr revision-id
      marko.makela@stripped
      and caused older GCC versions to emit warnings.

+optimized for size rather than speed and on many targets it is placed
+into special subsection of the text section so all cold functions
+appears close together improving code locality of non-cold parts of
+program.  The paths leading to call of cold functions within code are
