gcc will simply remove functions if they're declared inline without
optimizations.
testinline.c:
inline int testinline()
{
return 1;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
return testinline();
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ gcc -std=gnu99 testinline.c; echo $?
/home/peroyvind/tmp/ccKURkmv.o: In function `main':
testinline.c:(.text+0x15): undefined reference to `testinline'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Ouchy! test() is simply removed, making main() call a non-existing function..
[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ gcc -std=gnu99 -finline testinline.c; echo $?

Works swell, function gets inlined.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ gcc -std=gnu99 -fgnu89-inline testinline.c; echo $?
0

Same behaviour as when using gnu89, function doesn't get inlined, nor does it
get removed..
With -fgnu89-inline giving the expected behaviour, I feel a bit confused
whether this is actually a bug or intended? I lack insight, but I sure hope
using inline functions without gcc optimizations resulting in breakage isn't
intended.
