The "(gcc)" above meant the inline functions are already used with gcc.

I have no reason to think Microsoft's inlining works worse than gcc's.

IOW - if the compiler does not support 'static inline' we should fall back
to plain 'static' functions, instead maintaining duplicate macros.
Such compilers would take a efficiency hit, but as they are practically
non-existent they dont matter.

Microsoft C does support inline, so it would not be affected.
