As far as I understand, as soon as source uses the affected macro, binary is
broken if compiled against un

Hello.
To fix #486693, I need to apply a patch that changes #define'd macro in an
exported library header.
The pattern is:
extern int foo(char *param1, int param2);
#define bar(param) foo(param, expr(param))
and changed thing is expr(param)
