Wouldn't this also work?
<#macro head>
...
</#macro>
<@page>

</@page>

and then inside the page macro definition, use <@head/> ?

I remember having used something like that. The only downside being that 
you have to remember to define all the macros you use, even if empty, in 
all the places you use the general macro.
