Good point.  In pixel access functions, that sort of thing would be
very, very common.

However, I don't believe any argument would need to be expanded more
than once.  It really is as simple as (y*span+x).  The only parameter
which would be expanded more than once is the surface itself; once to
access the pixel data, and once to access the horizontal span.
