I think you're missing a comma in between $host1 and $host2. It should be:
all_hosts = "{ $host1, $host2 }"
This hasn't been true for some time. The comma is optional.

According to the pf FAQ:
Macros can be defined recursively. Since macros are not expanded within quotes the following syntax must be used:
host1 = "192.168.1.1" host2 = "192.168.1.2" all_hosts = "{" $host1 $host2 "}"
However when one tries to use this syntax to create a list of networks a syntax error occurs when checking the rule set using pfctl:
# cat nets.conf
netA = "18.100.0.0/16" netB = "12.150.0.0/16" netC = "12.151.0.0/16" nets = "{" $netA $netB $netC "}"
# pfctl -nvf ./nets.conf netA = "18.100.0.0/16" netB = "12.150.0.0/16" netC = "12.151.0.0/16" ./nets.conf:5: syntax error
This is covered in the archives. Search for "recursive macro" or something along those lines.
