So we don't have to purge on every GC. The patches (ahem) for bug 488731 tried to purge only on shape regeneration -- bad idea without this bug fixed.

/be
Really would want weak refs, so purge entries referencing a dead script bytecode, object/shape, or sprop.

Assignee: brendan → general
The test in bug 458271 uses GC to force the property cache to be purged. If this bug is fixed, that test will become sporadic (that is, if we ever regress that bug, the test will become random instead of reliably failing). Not a big deal.
