Macros are expanded whereever they are found with all the usual behaviors.

WHat likely isn't obvious is that macro expansions can be postponed
to the install, not just during the build. This is
        PreReq: %%insserv_prereq
(note the escaping '%%') and the install, not the build, macros are
used to expand.
