  32 /* This definition is only used if inlining fails for this function; see
  33    the last page of <sys/stat.h>.  The real work is done by the `x'
  34    function which is passed a version number argument.  We arrange in the
  35    makefile that when not inlined this function is always statically
  36    linked; that way a dynamically-linked executable always encodes the
  37    version number corresponding to the data structures it uses, so the `x'
  38    functions in the shared library can adapt without needing to recompile
  39    all callers.  */
