The compiler shouldn't do the inlining in that case, cause the pre-3.3.1
compiler doesn't allow inlining of implementation-only functions (and that
was something that was indeed fixed in 3.2.0: the overload that's not
declared in the interface section is no longer available globally).

3.3.1 handles inlining of implementation-only functions correctly.

Thus for 3.2.0 and 3.2.2 you indeed need to use the workarounds you
mentioned.

Sven
