Is the problem in the way you're re-including the file each time.

**I** would do it this way:

Have a "mesh.inc" which does a
    #declare TREE= mesh{....}

Then in your main file at the beginning have a single
#include"mesh.inc"

then in your macro say object{TREE transform{...}}

I don't know of a design benefit for calling it the way you do....
