Hmm... maybe that's due to the top layer in the file access
(ITextStream, the one where the buffer used to reside in) now using
polymorphism. Still, it puzzles me a bit why the copying-around of the
macro content does so little to counteract that penalty. Might even have
to do with CPU properties.

Since this 3.6% performance loss on your machine buys a 12% performance
bonus on Thomas' machine, I guess I'm willing to pay that price.
