+@deffn procedure link-variables environment1 symbol1 environment2 symbol2
+Defines @var{symbol1} in @var{environment1} to have the same binding as
+@var{symbol2} in @var{environment2}, and returns an unspecified value.
+Prior to the call, @var{symbol2} must be bound in @var{environment2},
+but the type of binding is irrelevant; it may be a normal binding, an
+unassigned binding, or a keyword binding.  Signals an error if
+@var{symbol1} isn't definable in @var{environment1}, or if @var{symbol2}
+is unbound in @var{environment2}.
+
+By ``the same binding'', we mean that the value cell is shared between
+the two environments.  If a value is assigned to @var{symbol1} in
+@var{environment1}, a subsequent reference to @var{symbol2} in
+@var{environment2} will see that value, and vice versa.
+@end deffn

+@deffn procedure unbind-variable environment symbol
+If @var{symbol} is bound in @var{environment} or one of its ancestor
+environments, removes the binding, so that subsequent accesses to that
+symbol behave as if the binding never existed.  Returns @code{#t} if there
+was a binding prior to the call, and @code{#f} if there wasn't.
