The macro better should take the test result too:
.CHAR_IS_WS(c,test)

Dunno, what your symbol C<char_is_white_space> is. It ought to be a

Please have a look at library/{pcre.imc,libpcre.imc}
where macros and PCC subs are working together, very similar to your
example.

It'll be fixed. I did a short test and it seems to work fine. I'll check
it in tomorrow.
