Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the suggestion.  It makes sense but the problem (for me) is
the "simply" in the above. ;-)

But Charles's solution works perfectly so I'm happy!

I do wonder, philosophically, about the use cases for macro expansion
and the resulting implementation.  My understanding is that macros are
only for export so should they not pay attention to export exclusion
directives?

Thanks again,
eric
