Hi,

The use of __attribute__ is currently enabled by checking for
__SUNPRO_C. However, this compiler only added support for
__attribute__ keywords in version 5.10 [1]. This patch adds a version
check to only enable this for supported versions [2].

I have tested this with Sun C 5.8 on a Solaris 9 SPARC system,
building 9.5.4 (+OpenSSL 1.1.0 patches).

Thanks,
