Good to hear.

I'll just add that my suggestion wasn't quite optimal -- as this is
a macros-only library, a better way to require it is:

(eval-when-compile (require 'org-fc-macs))

This ensures that macros are loaded for byte-compilation, but means
that subsequently loading the byte-compiled .elc library does *not*
load org-fc-macs (which is not needed in this scenario as, in the
byte-compiled code, the macro calls have already been expanded).
