I haven't tried that one. It's possible that after the inlining the normal
"eliminate unused variables" logic could clean up. But whether or not it's
actually doing so is another matter. (Inlining in gcc is funky, always has
been. The kernel guys have hit it with large hammers over the years to try to
get some sense out of it, but it changes from version to version...)
