Style question on inline functions in a header

Is it OK, style-wise, to define an (inline) function in a header outside of
the namespace block (using the "X boost::function() { /*...*/ }" syntax)?
This applies mainly to non-template functions and methods, as some
compilers, including mine, restrict where template-d functions and methods
can be defined (usually only within the class declaration, or maybe within
the namespace declaration).
