Comment(by kini):
If we mount a sage source installation with mount option strictatime or
relatime we can just touch all the files to have an access time in the
deep past (with something like `cd $SAGE_ROOT ; for x in $(find) ; do
touch -ad "1981-02-03 04:05:06" ; done`), then run the whole doctest
suite, then use stat() to find files which were unused. This should give
us a good idea of what is never used. Unfortunately this does not seem
possible on sage.math - POSIX atime is not respected in my homedir,
probably as it is mounted over NFS...
