Actually they do -- and both show what the issue might be, cilk+
uses setjmp but we already have code to disallow inlining of
functions calling setjmp (but we happily inline into functions
calling setjmp).  When mangling the testcases to try forcing
inlining I still (the patch was already applied) get

/space/rguenther/src/gcc-git/gcc/testsuite/c-c++-common/cilk-plus/CK/spawnee_inline.c: 
In function ‘fib’:
/space/rguenther/src/gcc-git/gcc/testsuite/c-c++-common/cilk-plus/CK/spawnee_inline.c:9:50: 
error: function ‘fib’ can never be copied because it receives a non-local 
goto

so the intent was probably to disallow inlining of functions calling
cilk_spawn, not to disable inlining into functions calling cilk_spawn.

But as seen above this is already handled by generic code handling
setjmp.

One issue is obvious (but already handled).  Why all inlining should
be disabled is indeed still a mystery.
