--- Comment #1 from Louis Dionne <ldionne.2 at gmail dot com> ---
I implemented the attribute in Clang and it was pretty easy for me even as a
novice compiler person, so I expect it wouldn't be too hard to implement in GCC
either.
Removing always_inline does not only lead to better compile times, but also to
better code generation and obviously a better debugging experience. We
investigated various other alternatives that wouldn't require using the
attribute but we concluded that we really had to if we wanted to keep a tight
grip on our ABI surface while still allowing users to explicitly instantiate
stdlib classes (which they are allowed to as long as they provide at least one
user-defined type).
