Not exactly. We fixed that for C23, such that indeed parameters may
remain visible for attributes in the gap between the parameter list and
the function body. The intent for that is then described in a footnote

      205) The visibility scope of a parameter in a function
      definition starts when its declaration is completed, extends to
      following parameter declarations, to possible attributes that
      follow the parameter type list, and then to the entire function
      body. The lifetime of each instance of a parameter starts when
      the declaration is evaluated starting a call and ends when that
      call terminates.


Thanks
