Retro-fitting @noescape

Using Swift
1

I’m trying to wrap

  public typealias dispatch_data_applier_t = (dispatch_data_t!, Int, UnsafePointer<Void>, Int) -> Bool
  public func dispatch_data_apply(data: dispatch_data_t, _ applier: dispatch_data_applier_t) -> Bool

with

  func forEach(@noescape body: (UInt8) throws -> ()) rethrows

but since dispatch_data_apply() promises to be @noescape (in the documentation), but doesn’t declare it, I’m stuck. Is there a way to tell the compiler: Really, this will not escape?

You can work around this by wrapping it with a C function that uses
__attribute__((noescape)).

An example of this is in my proposal "Add @noescape to public library API":
