Overall reply about the compound literals is in my other email.

I think it's better to leave this one as is. Not every entry will
use the same combination of parameters. And having the entry spelled
out like this makes it easier to read which value is for what
parameter, instead of having to go up to the macro definition.

For comparison, this entry uses just two of the parameters, while for
another platform I'm working on the full set of parameters is needed.
