Yeah. You really need a use-count on the shared cache object.
I've been working on pulling out plpgsql's code that manages its
function cache into a new module that can be shared with functions.c.
That code is quite battle-tested and I don't see a good argument
for reinventing the logic. It's not fit to share yet, but I hope
to have something in a day or so.

Well, you do need those when dealing with an old-style function (raw
parse trees).
