If I define a macro in one template, and #extend that template elsewhere,
the macro is not available in the extended template, as expected.

When looking at the cheetah code, I see why this is: since the macros are
implemented purely in the parser, and the #extended (parent, superclass)
template is never parsed, the macro never exists in the context of the
#extended (child, subclass) template.

What would it take to get this working?
What would be the best approach?
