Both __pure and __attribute_pure__ are the same, and I found out that
there is only a handful of users for these. __attribute_pure__ is
used in approximately 15 places, and __pure is not used anywhere.
Is either __pure or __attribute_pure__ preferred? Imo, __pure looks
much nicer than __attribute_pure__ so we could do a replacement.

that was pretty much the point of my earlier post -- given the
precedent for all of the other short forms, there seems to be no
reason not to simply use "__pure" and delete the longer definition.
i'll post a patch for that shortly.
