Would uSockets be an exception?  That is designed to be used as a
static library with link-time optimization, so that trivial functions
(such as struct getters) can be inlined into users of the library.
Not doing so is (according to their documentation) a huge performance
hit.  That said, should such a library just be shipped as source code?
