Hmm; I'm inconsistent on whether to spell things '*tail' or '*(tail)'.
I don't think any of the callers converted in patches 6 or 7 care about
the difference, but for maximal copy-paste portability, the use of the
macro parameter should be surrounded by () anywhere that could otherwise
cause a mis-parse on some arbitrary expression with an operator at
higher precedence than unary * (hmm, the only such operators are all
suffix operators; so maybe the *(tail) is overkill...)
