This should not happen if I understood Stefan correctly and you should
log a bug against Emacs.

Org needs to stay backwards compatible with older Emacs versions, so it
will likely not be possible to directly replace things as you've done.
I'm not sure a defsubst would cut it, so it looks like this will become
another compatibility macro (expanding to either flet or cl-flet
depending on Emacs version).
