Why do you want to push this insane workaround for a clear Mingw bug?

Please have mingw just fix the nasty bug, and the git patch with the
trivial wrapper looks much simpler than just saying "don't inline
anything" and that crazy block of nasty mingw magic #defines/.

And then document loudly that the wrapper is due to the mingw bug.
