`--macros` is problematic because it requires rewriting the entire path, most 
of which is fairly critical to normal operation. Basically rpm must always 
initialize itself with the macros from the same version, otherwise there's 
weird stuff can happen. Which means, rpm from the host must initialize with the 
macros from the host.

For selective macro loading, --load=/some/path is much better alternative as 
this doesn't disrupt the normal macro path.
