A google search reported that it was an explicit requirement of 
Ada to not have macros or the like to simplify debugging..

The only language that I know who has what you want and a sane 
integer semantic (very rare) is Nimrod ( http://nimrod-code.org/ 
).

I've learned about Nimrod only a few weeks ago, it seems to be an 
interesting language, but its OO syntax is "too simple" ( 
http://forum.nimrod-code.org/t/3 ).
