Comment (by fhgwright):

 Replying to [comment:2 fhgwright]:
 > I admit I don't think I ever tested anything with `-std=c90`, so it
 makes sense that I never saw that.  Presumably `gcc14` is engaging in its
 typical obnoxiousness of acting like `-pedantic` even when `-pedantic`
 isn't specified, with the effect of failing to recognize `inline` as a
 keyword in the `-std=c90` case.

 Actually, upon reflection, I realized that `gcc14` is within its rights to
 disallow `inline` in `-std=c90` mode, since recognizing a new keyword is a
 potential incompatibility.

 As far as the cause of the `-std=c90` is concerned, you might look to see
 whether this is coming from a misbehaving configure test.
