Yeah, but doing:

	static inline foo(void);

	bar()
	{
		...
		foo();
	}

	static inline foo(void)
	{
		...
	}

is pretty dumb too.  I don't see any harm if this compiler feature/problem
pushes us to fix the above in the obvious way.

Plus if we do, the inlining attempt actually succeed, on all compiler
versions.
