Macron in section heading merges into letter

Question

I have a section heading that includes the word 'erōs'. I currently have a command mapped which replaces \eros with er\=os, thus printing the macron. The problem is that in the heading, which is bold, the macron is effectively swallowed up into the 'o'. Is there any way to print it a little higher? I am currently using libertine font, btw.

edit - MWE:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{libertine}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{xspace}
\newcommand{\Macron}{Macr\=on\xspace}

\begin{document}
\section{\Macron Problem}
\end{document}

@StevenB.Segletes That's annoying. I use shareLaTex.com. I'll try compiling on miktex at some point — DavidR, Mar 19 '13 at 13:46
For me the appearance is fine as long as I don't zoom out too far. — Andrew Swann, Mar 19 '13 at 14:42

It seems to be a version issue. You can detect the used version very simple with the package dateiliste and printing the version in your document. Therefor you can use the following example:

\listfiles
\documentclass[draft]{article}
\usepackage[showpages, svn]{dateiliste}
\usepackage{libertine}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{xspace}
\newcommand{\Macron}{Macr\=on\xspace}

\begin{document}
\section{\Macron Problem}

\printFileList[\subsubsection]
\end{document}

It needs two compilation runs.

The important line is the version of libertine.sty.

With TeX Live 2013 you get:

libertine.sty 0 2013/02/13

whereby ShareLaTeX is using

libertine.sty 0 2011/06/06
