You will not see anything when you in-line one of those functions in 
your actions file. But if you use the action in any context, or if you 
use any action or macro that invokes the in-lined action (either 
directly or indirectly), then you will see this sort of error:

...
Checking /etc/shorewall/tunnels...
Checking MAC Filtration -- Phase 2...
Applying Policies...
    ERROR: The Broadcast Action may not be invoked in-line 
/usr/share/shorewall/action.Broadcast (line 76)
       from /etc/shorewall/action.Geo (line 46)

In this case, my default net->all action 'Geo' invokes Broadcast.
