+        * lisp.h (GCPRO2_VAR, GCPRO3_VAR, GCPRO4_VAR, GCPRO5_VAR, GCPRO6_VAR):
+        New macros, so that the caller can use some names other than
+        gcpro1, gcpro2, etc.
+        (GCPRO2, GCPRO3, GCPRO4, GCPRO5, GCPRO6): Reimplement in terms
+        of the new macros.
+        (GCPRO1_VAR, UNGCPRO_VAR): Change the meaning of the second
+        argument, for consistency with GCPRO2_VAR, etc: it is now the
+        prefix of the variable, not the variable itself.  All uses
+        changed.
         * dired.c (directory_files_internal, file_name_completion):
         Rename locals to avoid shadowing.
