Wouldn't it be better to put the macros in a separate file (say
mymacros.sty) and use

#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{mymacros}

? Less clutter in the org file and if the macros are more generally useful,
you can make it available, say by moving it to your personal texmf
directory (mine is at ~/.texmf-var/tex/latex but ymmv) and running texhash.
