I could not produce a test that provokes the wrong case (when `getParents` returns an empty list). Is it enough to have no new test here? If we can get a test for the crash it needs more investigation to check if `RecursiveASTVisitor` works correct and probably a fix at other place.

In my opinion, this case a very rare case when the change is justified even without the tests. Of course, it would be better if you had a test that is a minimal reproducer for the crash you are talking about. But, since you remove a sub-optimal infrastructural element, that is the parent map, which relies on the mentioned `RecursiveASTVisitor`, I don't think that we need to hunt down bugs for those components that you just dumped out from the ASTImporter code.
