Here's a polished-up patchset for that.  I made the memoize test
removal a separate patch because (a) it only applies to master
and (b) it seems worth calling out as something we might be able
to revert later.

I found one bug in the draft patch: add_nulling_relids only processes
Vars of level zero, so we have to apply it before not after adjusting
the Vars' levelsup.  An alternative could be to add a levelsup
parameter to add_nulling_relids, but that seemed like unnecessary
complication.
