Try invoking texi2dvi with -e option. Did it work?
The implementation of @macro in texinfo.tex is limited (because the
design of Texinfo macros doesn't fit well with TeX capabilities). The
"-e" option causes texi2dvi to expand macros using makeinfo's -E
option; makeinfo supports more sophisticated use of @macro.
For such simple text substitutions, you could use @set/@value or
@alias. They work better in TeX.
