Fixed for aliases defined via define-obsolete-variable-alias.

AFAICS, the only possible remaining issue is:

i) You have customized oldvar.

ii) (defcustom oldvar ...) is replaced by
(defvaralias 'oldvar 'newvar)
(defcustom newvar ...)

(in a non-dumped file)

where oldvar is either not obsolete, or is made obsolete "by hand"
rather than through define-obsolete-variable-alias.
