When I compiled this with gcc 4.1.1 (mips), ".markers" section was
empty.

I suppose "unused" attribute is not suitable for modern gcc. Maybe
__attribute_used__ should be used?

The __attrribute_used__ is defined in compiler-gcc3.h as:

#if __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 3
# define __attribute_used__ __attribute__((__used__))
#else
# define __attribute_used__ __attribute__((__unused__))
#endif
