So the question boils down to: is it possible to access/save the line
number of where the macro is called (in my .emacs file)?
Under some circumstances, yes. Here is a quick sketch:

[-- Attachment #1.3: Type: text/plain, Size: 525 bytes --]
that demonstrates the basic technique, and illustrates the primary
shortcomings -- unreliability and imprecision (if you use it, you will
undoubtedly discover the other shortcomings, soon enough :-D).
To play, save to disk, ‘M-x load-file’ it, and then examine the
*Messages* buffer.
