Ok, back to the original question, I think you're asking for this:
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Nested-Functions.html

Which seems somewhere between an inline function and a macro.

And although I'm not averse to merging a patch for this, I'm not too 
interested in doing the work myself at the moment because I'm focused on 
getting tcc to compile existing programs (like busybox, uClibc, and the Linux 
kernel).  I don't know of any existing programs that make use of this.  I'm 
guessing you have an example? :)
