12) Macros, Enums and RTL
-------------------------
Names of macros defining constants and labels in enums are capitalized.
.. code-block:: c
#define CONSTANT 0x12345
Enums are preferred when defining several related constants.
CAPITALIZED macro names are appreciated but macros resembling functions
may be named in lower case.
I dunno. Yes, there's macro trickery going on here, but it certainly
resembles a function. It doesn't fail any of the rules laid out in that
chapter of coding-style about unacceptable uses of macros.
