In that case 02/33 patch would become the first patch right? The same 
problem would be there too, I guess. The macros added in that patch gets 
used only in 03/33 patch. Is that fine?

The first patch would be a shell patch for most PMD additions. That's 
the reason we started this way. If you want it changed, will do so. 
Please do let me know what will be the right approach.
