[Bug c++/15871] [3.4/3.5 Regression] g++ does not honour -fkeep-inline-functions

The documentation is not clear about what should happen in C++.  The
documentation for -fkeep-inline-functions specifically refers to static inlines,
and says that it has no effect on extern inline functions, in the sense of the
GNU C extension.

This ordinary C++ inline function is neither static nor extern inline, in the
sense of the GNU C extension.

However, I think that interpreting this switch as meaning that inline functions
should be kept in C++ makes sense.  I will fix it, and update the documentation.

I'm not sure yet whether this should be fixed for GCC 3.4.2, or just GCC 3.5;
that will depend on how invasive the fix appears to be.
