I agree with Jason. Nobody should store any pointers to the unwind table, and the FuncUnwinders and UnwindPlan objects are already handed out as shared pointers (but those shouldn't persist for long either, or otherwise our new unwind info wouldn't be effective).  If we find a good reason to store the old unwind table, we can always do the thing like we do for SymbolFiles (where the Module keeps a list of all SymbolFile objects it ever had), but I hope that will not be necessary.
