Wasn't some Nokia-internal tool mentioned on one of the lists? Okay,
mostly some shortcomings were discussed, but it seemed to ways ahead of
doing these checks manually. As Shane said, at the end of the day, no
such tool will ever be able to replace due diligence by the developers
making changes.

Shane mentioned D-Bus APIs. The Qt signal and slot names are another
recent one. This only shows up only in the strings embedded inside the
library.
