Description Filip Pizlo 2013-12-25 15:58:04 PST 
It probably doesn't matter, but it feels dirty to just leak them.

(The reason why it shouldn't matter is that the DFG region-allocates all nodes and frees them wholesale at the end.  But we currently mostly maintain the invariant that all allocated nodes are referenced from somewhere in the graph; only DCE doesn't do this.)
