I think these are *very bad* ideas. For one thing, the convention is that
macros be upper case. But much more importantly, it means that you can't
simply print the expression in GDB: you need to know the full name.
Why was this done in the first place? It seems a major step backward to me.
If we do want to do this rename, I think we have to do it that way: not as
a macro.
