Perhaps there may be false positives in your code.

Many times, macros like the below are used:

#define SUBSYSTEM_PREFIX_FOO 1
#define SUBSYSTEM_PREFIX_BAR 2
#define SUBSYSTEM_PREFIX_BAZ 3

#define USE_TYPE(type) SUBSYSTEM_PREFIX_##type

It doesn't seem your code knows that style.

Also, the tool might be more flexible if it was
written using perl or python.
