Isn't it $_HOSTPARENT_HOST$ ?
btw, in order to avoid the double declaration (and human errors) you
could add in generic-host (ot whatever template you define)
define generic-host {
...
parents $_HOSTPARENT_HOST$
}
and in the real host definition you will define only the custom macro.
Haven't tried it, but it should work
