I seem to have several other libraries which use inline (i.e. the non-underscored version) and they're all building correctly.  So could it be that freetype2 has re-defined it somehow?  Or maybe it #includes a file somewhere that re-defines the meaning of inline ??

Some extra information's come to light (from this MSDN article...)
