There's nothing "hypothetical" about it --- I still regularly check
that the code builds on an old HP compiler that doesn't have inline.
I remind you that the project policy is to not require any compiler
features not found in C89. If you can exploit inline on more compilers
than now, fine, but assuming that everything has got it is not OK.
