Breaking compilers that don't have inline at all isn't happening;
it wouldn't buy us anything much anyway. The debate here is about
how much we can assume about the behavior of compilers that do
recognize the keyword. In particular, do they behave sensibly
when finding an unreferenced static inline function, which is what
would occur in many modules if we allow them to see inline functions
in headers.
