Hi Nicolas,

All what I meant was that macros:
* make debugging more difficult through that they
* hinder source code navigation

It's Ok if you wrote it one time, it rock-stable works, and never need
to get there again,
But once it is needed to debug that code.... problems arise.

Anyway, VMkit is very interesting project, thank you for it :) and
other creators too).
I'm almost get accustomed to it; especially after get debug-logging reenabled.

***
So, how do you see VMkit now, what's its stage now? Where is its
current place on roadmap?

Regards,
Minas
