But they're inline functions. Thus when inline-d into the code, they're
acting as intrinsic.

Also, even if they're not inlined, the existing code would break, because
use of "Math" comes after use of "system". Thus Math's IfThen() would be
used instead of system intrinsic.

The same applies for any other user's variants of IfThen that could have
been written.

thanks,
Dmitry
