This is good.  I like that I can specify __attribute__ ((always_inline)) on
local static functions and still be warned if they are unused.  IMHO the real
bug is that such usage triggers a "warning: always_inline function might not be
inlinable".

If this bug and/or the above warning behavior is valid, then what's the
"correct" way to say "I want my local static function to be always inlined, but
don't hide warnings if it's unused"?
