The ability to modify the macros to your own needs is not a bug. Anyway 
try adding a few more args to your stdexten to handle the context name 
and the like so it doesn't need default. On another point, why would 
asterisk come with built in code example for a multi-tenant set-up? 
Please save your self some time and embarrassment by not submitting that 
particular "bug".
