Access to integer value of BUILTINSXP/SPECIALSXP

Hello,
For the BUILTINSXP and SPECIALSXP types, the R Internals page documents

"An integer giving the offset into the table of primitives/.Internals. "

What macro gives me the value of this integer? I guess something like  
this would work
had R_USEINTERNALS been defined
v->u.primsxp.offset
(where v is a SEXP of either of the above types).

What is the portable version?

Thank you
Saptarshi

After some reading, what i really need is something to give access to
PRIMNAME(obj).
Setting #define R_USEINTERNALS doesn't work and i'd rather not use
internals. Is the some exposed api call to get PRIMNAME?

Thank you
Saptarshi
