I think this is a holdover from when we used to declare variables inside the macros. And then its been copy and pasted forward for years every time a new macro intrinsic gets added.
Interestingly this caused some tests for IRGen to be slightly more optimized. We now return a zeroinitializer directly instead of going through a store+load.
It also removed a bogus error message on another test.

Still need to convert all the doxygen comments. Which is much harder to do.
