Thanks,

I agree that this change is correct.
And it seems to be the only case where this change is
relevant in this file.

And, personally, I do see a value in reducing naked casts,
even if the macro is doing much the same thing. Because
using a macro is more expressive about intent.

But, OTOH, I do see that there is a cost in terms of code-churn,
something for the maintainer to weigh-up.
