Comment (by sgraf):

 Yes, that works and seems a lot simpler! I didn't know that `INLINE` works
 'both ways', e.g. that we can prevent inlining the body into `c` this way.
 The only minor downside is that there might be more unidentified cases
 where such an `INLINE` annotation on a lambda could be beneficial.

 I'll prepare a patch and benchmark.
