The way it works is by re-parsing that object multiple times with multiple
clock values.  I would be very difficult for it to to 'know' which variables
the user is treating like the clock and even more difficult to know how to
modify those variables in the way the user would want them modified.  If you
put your #declare C=clock; WITHIN the motion_blur object, then C things will
probably work the way you expect.
