Actually, it also needs to include rule 6 in order to work.  The end 
result should be a new 'current' version with 'age' set to 0.

Inline functions become part of the user's application/library so they 
don't normally count as part of the API, but they might still be 
exposed if the compiler fails to inline them, in which case they do 
become part of the API.
