THe inlining heuristics are a bit of black magic.  I wouldn't be surprised if
they were willing to do something like inline a large single use function into
its caller.  And more importantly, never rely on inlining or the lack thereof 
for
a correctness issue :-)

Anyway, we've clearly got some debugging to do here.  I'm actually taking a day
of PTO to recharge after the last couple of hell weeks, but this'll be near the
top of the queue Tuesday.
