This example assembles fine.  You either have a very old version of the
assembler or there is a problem in some other part of your program. The
version I used is C64101 V080282.  Be sure the macro definition of PRINT
occurs _before_ any other use of the symbol PRINT, else the error you
mentioned will pop up as it should.
