I know about this issue and hunting it down for good two days now. While
this would resolve the inline issue, things are much more broken than
that. GNU glibc's implementation of stat() is probably the most
obfuscated code I've ever laid my eyes on. As a result of that, my
mocking makes some tests run in an endless loop on my arm machine (yeah,
raspberry, but still). The solution I'm developing for these two days
now, would completely drop this inline function. So stay tuned.
