+ INLINE_HEADER_BEGIN

+ The corresponding foo.c file should do this:

+ #define FOO_INLINE EXTERN_INLINE
+
+ before including any .h file other than config.h.
+ Other .c files should not define FOO_INLINE.
+
+ C99 compilers compile functions like 'incr' as C99-style extern
+ inline functions. Pre-C99 GCCs do something similar with
+ GNU-specific keywords. Pre-C99 non-GCC compilers use static
+ functions, which bloats the code but is good enough. */
