Would be nice to error out if the array is overstepped.

Since only 'macro' will take multiple parameters, I wonder if it might
be better to implement the argument parsing there, and simply pass the
string (minus the function name) as-is to functions.

You would then be able to have ',' in shell commands, which might be
required -- think gcc -Wl,option and the like.

Arrays seem neater, since the pointers aren't needed.

Could get rid of 'ret' and just do

    if (pclose(p) == -1)
        perror(cmd);

A loop like this might work too:

    q = p + 1;
    do {
        if (*q == '\0') {
            *error*
            val = ...
            goto error;
        }

        if (*q == '(')
            nest++;
        if (*q == ')')
            nest--;
        q++;
    } while (nest > 0);

    val = func_eval_n(...)
error:
