If you're interested in doing some of this stuff in JS, there's sweet.js[1] for macros. I've also implemented some similar stuff as libraries: adt.js[2], matches.js[3], and tailrec.js[4]. By implementing them as libraries, I've given up some of the nicety of native-looking syntax, but it requires no preprocessing and only ES3.
