Also, would giving a warning when situations like this occurs while
reading the configuration file be feasible? If not a bug, it
_definitely_ is a very nasty gotcha that should be logged some way.

When several people are modifying the config file, it is rather
cumbersome that all of them have to keep a lookout for anyone else
messing up this macro expansion stuff -- it can be quite hard to spot.
Issuing a warning to some log would help a lot in figuring out what
the problem is.
