Thanks for the analysis.

It's certainly the case that we now try to output an inlined instance
of a function without having first shown the back end the un-inlined
instance.  In my opinion, that's a good thing -- there's no need for
it to know about anything except what we want it to know about.

However, the debug-generation routines need to be able to cope with
that.  If you can reproduce Jim's problem, maybe you could help him
with the solution?  I've asked him privately to look into it as
quickly as possible -- as a favor to me, the bug-causer -- since it
does apparently affect GCC 3.0 bootstraps on some targets.  If you
were willing to help, that would be great.
