For gcc >= 3.1, we are already telling the compiler that it should
either inline the code or abort compilation.
"extern inline" doesn't make much sense. And it gives a warning with
-Wmissing-prototypes.
I'm currently cleaning up warnings with -Wmissing-prototypes to get them
to an acceptable level. -Wmissing-prototypes will help us to enforce a
coding style that will avoid a class of nasty runtime errors that are
currently sometimes hitting us.
