In the case where you want to a function to be inline in some cases and not others what about:

int small_function(int val)
{
return val+1;
}

void main()
{
int i = 0;

for(i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
{
small_function() __inline__
}
}

This would support selective inlining, and also helps the programmer who is new to the code visualize what is going on - you don't need to see the definiton of small_function() to see that the function will be inlined.
