Conveniently, if you build with C++, the inline functions can return references, so you don't have to change hundreds of occurrences of REG_ATTRS (x) = ...; into SET_REG_ATTRS (x, ...); You do still have to face the problem that the macros are often defined before the structures that they use, so simple replacement with inline functions fails.
