As a *target macro* it makes sense to remove it - reomve it from defaults.h, make it purely internal to dwarf2out.c. But I think it makes sense to have it inside dwarf2out.c - to indicate that a particular "4" is actually the size of an offset (which could be 8 if 64-bit DWARF were generated) rather than some other source of the magic number "4" (in general I think using meaningful names is better than such magic numbers, especially given that in the DWARF specification this is not a constant 4). -- Joseph S.
