Is it true the the scm_remember_upto_here_1 stuff applies also to
SCM_STRING_CHARS and friends?

        * data-rep.texi (Vector Data): For SCM_VECTOR_BASE, SCM_STRING_CHARS
        and SCM_SYMBOL_CHARS, cross reference "Remembering During Operations".

Text:

   Note that `SCM_VECTOR_BASE', `SCM_STRING_CHARS' and
`SCM_SYMBOL_CHARS' return pointers to data within the respective
object.  Care must be taken that the object is not garbage collected
while that data is still being accessed.  This is the same as for a
smob, *Note Remembering During Operations::.
