Would cscope do the job?
http://cscope.sourceforge.net/

I found cscope very efficient for searching C files, even huge set of them.

Now you want a "string search" or a "symbol" search?
cscope can do both but I don't know if its efficient for string.

If symbol search is enough may be ctags would be a good candidates too;
http://ctags.sourceforge.net/

What kind of indexing do you need?
