OK, so here we go:

1) delete_unreachable_blocks calls delete_basic_block.
2) delete_basic_block calls remove_bb
3) remove_bb calls remove_phi_nodes_and_edges_for_unreachable_block
4) remove_phi_nodes_and_edges_for_unreachable_block calls remove_phi_node
5) remove_phi_node calls release_phi_node and release_ssa_name
6) -release_phi_node puts the PHIs in the freelist.
   -release_ssa_name puts the SSA_NAMEs in the freelist

So it should already work.

I'll see if I can verify that it indeed actually happens.
