That is IMHO a serious obstackle. If anything, the inlines should
use always_inline, artificial attributes, but don't know if GDB treats them
already specially and doesn't step into them with step.
Also, I'm afraid it will significantly grow cc1plus/cc1 debug info.
The .gdbinit macro redefinition Paolo posted sounds to be a better approach.
