  * Don't try to outsmart the compiler and don't redefine `inline' in an
    installed header file. LP: #435793.

    /* Make gcc understant that when we say inline, we mean it.
     * I really hate when the compiler is trying to be more clever than me,
     * because in this case gcc is not able to figure out functions with a
     * single call site, so not only I have to tag those functions inline
     * by hand, but then it refuse to inline them properly.
     * Total saving for iwevent : 150B = 0.7%.
     * Fortunately, in gcc 3.4, they now automatically inline static functions
     * with a single call site. Hurrah !
     * Jean II */
