Basically, I was wondering whether it'd be possible to write a test that
byte compiles some statement and then checks the relevant expansion of
the macro. This way, whenever the (now correct) code changes in the
future (for whatever reason—most likely a refactor, I guess), one could
verify that the functionality wasn't inadvertently broken again.
