My experience from a few months ago with some cross-platform code is
that clang, GCC and MSVC have different ideas about how inline
functions in C work. Are they static or extern? Do you need provide an
implementation body somewhere?

There are also differences between the C++ and C99 definitions.

Probably all solvable with build settings, but not as easy as one line comments.
