Hi Goetz,

Personally I don't see why a cpp file should have to be aware that a 
member function it uses just happens to have been defined in an 
inline.hpp file by its author. Seems to break encapsulation to me. :(

I see 277 occurrences of this in the existing OpenJDK hotspot code, so I 
don't think we can take this as a general rule either.

Note I'm not saying this fix isn't right or needed, just that the 
"rules" you are trying to embody don't seem to generally apply.
