Hmm,...

I have to wonder if this cosmetic change is an improvement, though.

I do not have a strong feeling either way, but I think it makes it clear
that these two macros are not lvalues if you do not pass a pointer but
instead pass a structure.  An inline function can still take a structure
passed by value as an argument anyway, no?
