Is the proper requirement "all cases"?  What if the glibc inline is
sometimes better, but sometimes far worse?

Also, that method means that the glibc people have to maintain crufty
inline assembler forever for the sake of producing slightly better code
on some ancient GCC version.  Speed is important, but so is
maintainability, so this might be worth doing only if the speed gain is
substantial.
