I just remembered this Autoconf change:

2002-03-28 Kevin Ryde <user42(at)zip(dot)com(dot)au>

* lib/autoconf/c.m4 (AC_C_INLINE): Test with a typedef return value,
to avoid versions of HP C which don't allow that.

So there you have it. Do we want to backpatch the new autoconf test, or
define inline to empty for this particular version of this platform, or
try to do without typedef'd types? I prefer option 1.
