Apologies, you are right.  That piece of byte code is indeed part of the
macro's definition, not something generated by it.  I tried compiling a
source file with just (require ...) (defun foo ...)
(url-http-ntlm--if-when-compile ..) and (defun bar ...), and in the
..elc, the foo and the bar had nothing intervening between them.

Yes.  :-)
