The patch I provided just adds the conditional stuff for NULL, TRUE,
and FALSE.  It also changes the definition of TRUE from 1 to !0 in
the (unlikely) event that a compiler defines !0 to be -1 (I've only
seen this a couple times in days past).

The MIN, MAX, and CLAMP macros are AFAIK not standard defines anyways.
