------------------------------------

GCC 4.7 Manual:
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.7.4/gcc/Function-Attributes.html

Here you can read:
weakref ("target")
{code}
static int x() __attribute__ ((weakref ("y")));
{code}
A weak reference is an alias that does not by itself require a definition to be given for the target symbol.

Hence the error in config.log:
{code}
configure:16034: checking for compiler 'attribute weakref' support
configure:16080: gcc -c -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -Werror  conftest.c >&5
conftest.c:215:46: error: 'weakref' attribute ignored because function is defined [-Werror=attributes]
{code}

To test weakref attribute you only need this function:
{code}
static void __attribute__((weakref("foo"))) *test(void *muffin, ...) ;
{code}
and not:
{code}
static void __attribute__((weakref("foo"))) *test(void *muffin, ...) {return (void *) 0;}
{code}
