That's better, though I wonder if we need to start #defines at begining
of line.  But I think current proposal is O.K.


Either this (which has unnecessary larger scope)

  #define hex(a) (hexchar[(a) & 15])
  static void set_packet_header(char *buf, const int size)
  {
  	static char hexchar[] = "0123456789abcdef";

  	buf[0] = hex(size >> 12);
  	buf[1] = hex(size >> 8);
  	buf[2] = hex(size >> 4);
  	buf[3] = hex(size);
  }
  #undef hex

or this (which looks worse)

  static void set_packet_header(char *buf, const int size)
  {
  	static char hexchar[] = "0123456789abcdef";
  #define hex(a) (hexchar[(a) & 15])
  	buf[0] = hex(size >> 12);
  	buf[1] = hex(size >> 8);
  	buf[2] = hex(size >> 4);
  	buf[3] = hex(size);
  #undef hex
  }
