I have absolutely no problem taking out the inlines once gcc is able to
perform the same optimizations.  Problem is that nobody spent the time
so far to complete the task in gcc.  As far as I know each function we
still have has an advantage over the gcc code.

Just look at the inlines to determine what is optimized, do it in gcc,
and let me know.  Then I'll remove the inline.
