NOTE: This is references GCC internals so what follows might not make
sense to users of GFortran but does make sense to the developers.

There is one reason and one reason only Gfortran does not inline.  It
produces multiple FUNCTION_DECLs to refer to the same function.  Now
functions containing other functions are correctly because there is only
one function_decl.

Yes this is a known bug and has already been discussed.  I was also
going to fix it at one point but work has gotten in the way so I cannot
fix this for a while.


Thanks,
