Did not change with 3.7 to my knowlege.

Oups, forgot to remove a rotate in the macro call. Also, there is a 
superfluous underscore "_".

sphere{vrotate(vrotate(<0, 15, 0>/5178,<0, 0, 90-lat>),<0, -long+90, 
0>)+<sin(radians(-long))*cos(radians(lat)), 
sin(radians(lat)),cos(radians(-long))*cos(radians(lat))> , <20, 25, 
20>/5178}

That long location statement is meant to replace your translate and rotates.
The v_rotate() macro replace the rotations.
Everything between the "+" and the radius replace your translate.

Don't forget to remove those:
rotate <0, 0, 90-lat>
rotate <0, -long+90, 0>
translate <sin(radians(-long))*cos(radians(lat)), sin(radians(lat)),
cos(radians(-long))*cos(radians(lat))>
