I'd rather see it go through something like -tip than doing it myself
directly, and get at least some of the automated testing before
unleashing it on an unsuspecting world.

I don't think it will affect much, but there *could* be situations
where there are some crusty __inline__ users that actually want
__always_inline behavior.

And we *may* actually have cases where we want the "let compiler make
a judgement call" behavior, so with this change people will have that
as an option. But yes, in the short term, it has the possibility of
regressions due to missed inlining.
