Your change will work. the inliner just avoids inlining of
current_function_decl so when the current_funcntion_decl is set to
something that we want to inline we lose.  setting it to the function
itself is OK as we don't do recursive inlining yet.

this seems to be fine to me too.

thanks for doing all the work! I planned to do it myself sometime but I
had dificulties to find the time so it is great to see it done!
