I'm reading the patches in order so I didn't see whether this is used.

Anyway I wonder if we want to expose this detail.  Sometimes I think
it'd be better if types were decoupled from objfiles and instead we had
a global type stash and "type GC" to avoid the current "leaks".

OTOH that's just a dream and we haven't moved on it in 20 years or
whatever.
