He was just pointing out (cryptically) that the compiler doesn't do
inlining by copying machine code, and that doing so wouldn't work very
well... (though I sort of assumed you weren't being literal when you
said that)

[It "copies" the compiler's internal representation for the inlined
function at some point during compilation (exactly what and where
varies even between gcc releases), and then continues with
optimization, etc. -- a _very_ important attribute of inlined
functions is that the inlined function's code is optimized in the
context of the call-site.]
