One would hope. It's unfortunately not the case though.

On the other side of the coin:
	* compilers are allowed to totally inline any static function
	* it doesn't really make any sense to use anything but static
	  scope for inline functions (making 'static inline' redundant)
	* I fail to see what an 'extern inline' would be, esp. in a world
	  where the only toolchain doing link time optimisations died out
