As i said when i pointed this out to you, we should probably skip
walking common.chain on SSA_NAME.
But that's non-trivial hard because it's a reused field :(

You should probably ask Diego or Andrew directly whether they'd like us
to do this in bsi_remove (which requires adding an argument) and
remove_phi_node(ditto) so that a lot less has to worry about releasing
defs.
