Yes, so I've only committed a subset of changes of which there were no
major (or in my opinion valid) objections:

- The construct that we use now works with many versions of GCC. There
  is absolutely no reason why we should still try to support GCC <2.95.

- There was also the discussion about __inline vs inline and __volatile
  vs __volatile. As Christoph and I noticed, there is also a lot of
  inconsistency between the usage of the keywords in the current sources
  we have.

I already spent much time discussing this issue with Christoph to get to
at least some compromise.
