From: Andreas Schwab <schwab@ls5.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
The general idea is to construct a list a all defined macros in
the form \do\macro1\do\macro2..., then temporarily define
\do to something appropriate and execute the list to do
whatever is needed. Here is a patch, and i have also
fixed a few other bugs that i found while browsing through
the @macro implementation. Additionally i have added a
check to prevent the user from doing silly things like
@macro shipout.
