The attached patch appears to not do any harm at all.

All it does is reserve a macro
C_allocate_argvector(as, c, av, avl)
wherein "as" is a reserved parameter
and use it back in c-backend.scm.

I hesitate to propose this to be included into 4.11.  At the other hand
it looks innocent enough and may provide an easier reference point once
we need to tell somebody which is the last known version to boot chicken
from source.
