 ** Variable aliases have been implemented:
 
-- Macro: defvaralias ALIAS-VAR BASE-VAR
+- Macro: defvaralias ALIAS-VAR BASE-VAR [DOCSTRING]
 
 This defines the symbol ALIAS-VAR as a variable alias for symbol
 BASE-VAR.  This means that retrieving the value of ALIAS-VAR returns
 the value of BASE-VAR, and changing the value of ALIAS-VAR changes the
 value of BASE-VAR.
 
+DOCSTRING, if present, is the documentation for ALIAS-VAR; else it has
+the same documentation as BASE-VAR.

 - Function: indirect-variable VARIABLE
