Hmm. I kinda share your concern, but since these are all static inlines
they don't really pollute any namespace, at least not for linking, so
conflicts could only arise when another subsystem suddenly exports the
same name, in a header file that we include. In the end I decided not to
worry about it just because it otherwise gets very long.
