 If you check the Linux fdisk.h (fe util-linux 2.9w), you will see that they 
indeed use a very similair (almost identical) macro. One thing though, it is 
more correct to put braces around the n's, in case (n) is a compound element. 
This should actually be done in any macro, to prevent errors.
 You could of course have submitted this to the list yourself, since it is not 
just my concern! I will include it before I do a PR submission.

				Thanks anyway,

				Leonard.
