Would keeping the old inline semantics (for both inline and __inline__)
under -std=gnu89, while using the new semantics (for both inline and
__inline__) under -std=gnu99 (which will become the default at some point
once C99 support is ready), suffice?  I feel that would be less confusing
than making different spelling of a keyword mean different things.
