   The problem springs from the macro being identical to the struct

I've also been having trouble getting oleo to work. The problem seems to
have something to do with execute_command being called with a wrong
count argument by some stub function, but I lacked the time to figure
out all the wierd preprocessor magic going on with the stubs. The result
is that execute_command hangs after any M-x command in a busy loop while
it counts down from 243262 or so.

I'm just curious, why was oleo designed to be so preprocessor dependent?
