We're already doing this it seems:
void
fini_ssanames (struct function *fn)
{
unsigned i;
tree name;
/* Some SSA names leak into global tree data structures so we can't simply
ggc_free them. But make sure to clear references to stmts since we now
ggc_free the CFG itself. */
FOR_EACH_VEC_SAFE_ELT (SSANAMES (fn), i, name)
if (name)
SSA_NAME_DEF_STMT (name) = NULL;

So the backtrace points at
gt_ggc_m_11symtab_node
((*x).generic.function_decl.common.common.symtab_node);
from LTO 'tree' walk. To me it's still obvious - we walk a cgraph edge
call_stmt and from there to gimple_bb which was freed.
Looking around the only place (we don't know whether this was WPA or LTRANS)
we'd have a cgraph with edges is during clone materialization which pointed
me at cgraph_node::release_body which frees the body but fails to eventually
zap ->call_stmt references.
Matthias reported this for "trunk 20210306" which I assume is a snapshot
tarball configured the Debian way.
