..IN THE NEW GCC VERSIONS.  For gcc 2.x and earlier, inline did what the
programmer told it.  Most of the performance testing was done with 
gcc that did respect inline, and we're still trying to restore performance
to that level.  Its only since we switched to gcc-3.1 that the inlining
has been silently broken.
