for the kernel, of course, which is by nature a freestanding
implementation all to itself, it can and probably should use
implementation-namespace things to do it, though.

using __inline or __inline__ in actual userland programs (not kernel
or libc headers, but programs) should be avoided, as far as i'm
concerned, for portability reasons.
