Lee - would you get the same result (same compiled binary code) with
something like:

+static inline void node_set_state(int node, enum node_states state)
+{
+	node_set(node, node_states[state]);
+}
+
+static inline void node_clear_state(int node, enum node_states state)
+{
+	node_clear(node, node_states[state]);
+}

If so, then I're prefer the latter, as it doesn't depend on the strange
#define wrapping an inline implementation of node_set and node_clear.

In other words, the latter looks 'simpler'.
