It might be OK here, since this is local to a single C file (so we at least are not hurting other code), but we may be in trouble if code in a header file is less careful. There is already a near-miss here with GREP_SOURCE_FILE, but fortunately grep.h is indeed careful. :) (I notice that ref-filter.c similarly uses SOURCE_* for an internal enum). -Peff
