1. sqlite3CodeDropTable now is used in build.c only, and can be declared as static (and removed from sqliteInt.h).

2. Why do you delete by name, if you have struct space.sequence->def->id?

3.1. Check for OOM;
3.2. For such short lived allocations you can use region_alloc - it allows to avoid multiple free() calls on each alloc, and free all temp allocations at once after a transaction is finished.

4. OPFLAG_FRESH_PTR seems to be unused. Why do you need it?
