Size and speed.

The inlined versions are to meant to be used within the variant code,
the biggest user being the coercion functions when I get round to
updating them (after the low level stuff). The code for the vast
majority of conversions is smaller than the code needed to push the
args and call the functions, since they are simply casts. Where a
common function is used for the conversion of most types the calls
can be combined skipping a level of indirection.

Cheers,
Jon
