  24 The <I>fred</I><B>_</B><I>inline</I> program inlines the bodies of all procedures
  25 with proc_syms marked with \x01Fred\x02 annotations at all
  26 callsites that use such marked proc_syms directly as the
  27 address of the procedure called. If the procedure body is
  28 not in the current file set, no attempt is made to inline
  29 that procedure.
  30 <P>
  31 Note that if a procedure marked \x01Fred\x02 contains a call to
  32 another procedure marked \x01Fred", the order of the inlining
  33 matters (i.e. whether the procedure body is inlined with
  34 or without the recursive inlining). The <I>fred</I><B>_</B><I>inline</I> program
  35 goes through the procedure bodies in the order the
  36 file sets are listed on the command line, and within a
  37 file set in the proc_iter order. It goes sequentially
  38 through each procedure body. Note that this guarantees
  39 termination and only limited code explosion potential, but
  40 it also means that the order of procedures matters. When
  41 recursive inlining is desired, the <I>leavesfirst</I> program
  42 will order the procedures within a file to make this possible.
  43 Note that it may be necessary to run <I>mergesuif</I>
  44 before <I>leavesfirst</I> if recursive inlining is desired and
  45 the procedures are spread across multiple files. It may
  46 also me necessary to move them all into file or all into
  47 interfile scope to allow complete freedom to order all
  48 procedures relative to one another.
