I will do that.

Removing the macros is just my suggestion. The disadvantage I see with 
macros is that I need to read both the macro and the listing to see what 
it really does. On the other hand, macros are probably more compact. If 
it is ok, I will break out a patch with this change and put it in the 
end of the patch stack. Then you can decide if you want it or not.
