It's because the Odd function is an assembler function, and the  
compiler can't yet inline assembler functions. I guess this stems  
from the time that the compiler was not very good at inlining nor at  
removing stack frames. I would probably be best to simply remove all  
assembler implementations of Odd() from the rtl so the generic Pascal  
version is used instead (which can be inlined).
