Ick, basing on where the function is defined seems like a hack.  That
is like the non NO_IMPLICIT_EXTERN_C problem.  Maybe I see this as
less useful than the instrument vs inline function issue.  You never
know people might have an include/c++ directory in their source tree
too which includes their C++ headers.  This one of the reasons why I
think it is less useful.
