I think STATIC is exactly such a solution: if you redefine a function 
you have declared STATIC then your program is non-conforming and all 
bets are off.  If you declare it <whatever the opposite of static is, 
which is not quite NOTINLINE> then you should not make any such 
assumptions, and redefinition ought to work,
