All the more reason to keep in mind the drawbacks
of macro implementations. And to be aware of which
"functions" you might be useing -are- macros and
not true functions at all.
I'm not saying you should not use macros, just saying
you must be aware of a) what -is- a macro in your API
and b) what the (possibily unanticipated) behavior differences
would be than if it were a real function.
