Recognize __builtin_free as being equivalent to free when passed into

etc. are declared to have __builtin_free as the free function.

         (test_9, test_10): New tests.

Looks good to me, thanks
Dave




Please could this be backported to all active branches?


Sure, it looks like only gcc11 needs this since malloc attribute matching seems recent. David, I've never done a backport before, may I just cherry-pick, push and post a [committed] patch on list or does it need to go through review?

Thanks,
Siddhesh
