There isn't. The problem is not with the objects IN your macro, it is with 
the object inside wich the macro is called.

Wrong:
#macro foo()
	sphere{0,1}
	sphere{0,2}
#end
object{foo()}

Correct:
#macro foo()
	sphere{0,1}
	sphere{0,2}
#end
union{foo()}

Also correct:
#macro foo()
union{
	sphere{0,1}
	sphere{0,2}
}
#end
object{foo()}
