Isn't this dangerous?  Assume I have worked hard to volatilize just
the minimal set of variables of a function to make sure it's
setjmp()-safe.  But then, it happens to be inlined (assume -O3, i.e.,
the function is not explicitly declared inline), but the caller
variables are not properly volatilized.  Wouldn't it break?  Shouldn't
such functions only be inlined when they're explicitly declared
inline?
