if it's /in/ the OTO_Get_Offset macro then why does commenting out the 
.y and .x notation (after the call to macro) get rid of the error:

#if(OTO_Get_Mask(Vec)=1 )
      #local Pt1 = Vec + y*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec)/*.y*/) + 
x*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec+y)/*.x*/);
      #local Pt2 = Vec + y*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec+x+y)/*.y*/) + 
x*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec-y+x+y)/*.x*/) +x+y;
     #else
      #local Pt1 = Vec + x*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec)/*.x*/) + 
(y*OTO_Get_Offset(Vec+x)/*.y*/);
      #local Pt2 = Vec + x*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec+x+y)/*.x*/) + 
y*(OTO_Get_Offset(Vec-x+x+y)/*.y*/) +x+y;
     #end
