+    I've had a bug report where GCC is emitting warnings about functions possibly not being inlineable. This warning happens when
+    the __attribute__((always_inline)) attribute is defined without an "inline" statement. I think therefore there must be some
+    case where "__inline__" is not always defined, thus the compiler emitting these warnings. When using -std=c89 or -ansi on the
+    command line, we cannot use the "inline" keyword and instead need to use "__inline__". In an attempt to work around this issue
+    I am using "__inline__" only when we're compiling in strict ANSI mode.
