This is wrong. Take a look at the reason of the do...while:
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Swallowing-the-Semicolon.html
You probably want to replace it with something like this:
#define R256(p0, p1, p2, p3, ROT, r_num) ROUND256(p0, p1, p2, p3, ROT, r_num)
or maybe even convert it to an inline function.
