 That's not needed actually.

 The compiler is not required to inline, the keyword is just a hint.

 I'm not a Windows expert, but it looks like it is required on Windows to pass 
every used library to the link command, and this problem exists because 
embedobj does not link the tools library, and you've just introduced usage of 
it. I've pushed a fix for this.
