I'm not an expert, but It appears to be the case that all macro arguments
are call-by-reference (it would make sense for large complex arguments)
so you need to ensure that all of the arguments are not lvalues
(couldn't appear on the left hand side of an '=' assignment)
so if you do things like
MyMacro(INTEGER_VALUE + 0, transform { MyTransform }, object { MyObject })
rather than just
MyMacro(INTEGER_VALUE, MyTransform, MyObject)
then copies are taken and the arguments aren't directly assigned to.

I reserve the right to be wrong, so someone may correct me.

I greatly admire your enormous persistance with this project, and it looks
fantastic, I just hope you back up your code :-)
