I'm looking at include/wine/library.h and was wondering why the wine_get_fs/gs/... are declared extern and not static like many other functions in that file. Is there any particular reason I'm not seeing?
Their __asm__ block is also missing __volatile__ I believe.

It's because they are exported from libwine too.
Their __asm__ block is also missing __volatile__ I believe.
I don't think that's needed, the segment registers can essentially be considered constant in 32-bit code.

The volatile is only needed if you cannot clearly model the dependencies of the passed in and out variables.
Since the asm is pretty clear here, it is not necessary.
