Which implies that a new name requires a new program!?

Renaming a program from x to y means renaming all functions and
variables. Then what happens to user customizations? One could leave it
to the user to translate x-* to y-*, but that of course is not an
option. One could define lots of obsolete-(function|variable)-aliases.
Or one could provide a "migration tool" that does the translation.

Is there a recommended procedure?
