I considered that but, in reality, I think it was a bug that they were
missing.  It is just "good style" (tm) to parenthesize macro arguments.
I checked other macros in gdb.  Most, if not all, of them parenthesize
their arguments without comment.

I didn't see any reason to document the parenthesizing in this one case,
even though it is fixing a bug.  I thought it would be unlikely that
someone would come along later and remove the parentheses from this
and other macro arguments.

However, if the consensus is that comments are needed, then I'll add them.
