OK, so I just dug into this part of the patch again. I don't think it's 
actually a problem after all:

When an inline node reuses the real symbol, that symbol won't have its 
`inlined` member set to true. Thus these symbols will never get deleted by 
inline_node__delete. If you have suggestions on how to make this clearer, I'm 
all ears. For now, I'll add a comment to where we alias/reuse the symbol.

I'll try to split up the patch now to make it somehow easier to review.

Cheers
