I won't answer the question about R5RS, but in Racket you can do this
fairly succinctly:
#lang racket/base
(require (for-syntax racket/base
racket/syntax))
(define-syntax (vars stx)
(syntax-case stx ()
[(_ id count val)
(with-syntax
([(id_i ...)
(for/list ([i (in-range 1 (add1 (syntax->datum #'count)))])
(format-id #'id "~a~a" #'id i))])
(syntax/loc stx
(begin (define id_i val)
...)))]))
(vars id 5 null)
(vector id1 id2 id3 id4 id5)
