There was a typo, I attach the correct patch.

As you prefer.  But C-h f will not point to org-table.el if we use this
macro.  This is acceptable, but we need to mention `org-lookup' as the
"matrix" function in the docstring, so that user C-h f'ing org-lookup
will find it in org-table.el.

Another wish style-wise: the first sentence of the docstring should be
one line long.  See the short parameters names and the docstrings in my
patch to get an idea -- but please feel free to also follow your taste
here, of course.

Thanks!
