This fails even if passing auto_attribs=True, albeit in a slightly different way.
The obvious workaround is to only put attributes in these, but that is harder for code analysis tools to understand (it lacks type annotations, even if the tools are attrs aware).
The second workaround would be to put the attributes from these into the class body, but that doesn't work if the attribute is inherited or describe a data descriptor (like getter/setters).
The final workaround is to duplicate the definition into both these and the class body, but that creates an opportunity for the two to get out of sync.
Anyway, ideally, attrs would add anything from the class body which is an instance of _CountingAttr, (and anything from the annotations dict if auto_attribs is set). If that is not practical, then a warning or exception should be raised rather than having weird runtime behavior.
