Pierre - can you update to the current stable release and retest?

John suggested on Twitter that your Galaxy might be too old and perhaps
pre-dates the macro support:

https://twitter.com/jmchilton/status/468381976911556608

That seems to fit - you appear to have a Galaxy from April 2013. We started
using the XML macros for the NCBI BLAST+ wrappers in August 2013, so
even if they were only on the development branch (galaxy-central) at that
point, they would surely have been in the stable branch (galaxy-dist) by
the close of 2013.

Regards,

Peter
