Not in my own code.  But I remember an old piece of code whose
author apparently thought that 'inline' is a perfect name for
input line.  Few days ago I had trouble compiling with gcc-15
code which declares its own 'bool' type.  The code is supposed to
compile using a wide range of compilers, so I am still looking
for "best" solution.
