Sure.

The basic idea is to use a macro for __attribute__((__fallthrough__))
like:

#define fallthrough __attribute__((__fallthrough__))

though some would prefer __fallthrough to be more similar to
other attribute macros. I prefer fallthrough; to be more
similar to break;

So it would end up like (just an example, won't apply)
