I'll poke around and see if I can submit a patch. The actual coding is simple enough, but I may decide not to bother submitting just 'cause that always takes a while on a new project.
I do have access to the build system -- this is running on the build machine. The main value it has over the list of source files in the makefile is that it also includes any header files that were brought in, which may contain a significant amount of code.
For each file I then get the Perforce path and version information, which gives us a machine-neutral specifier for all of the files.

Presumably you do not have access to the build system that created the shared object in the first place ?

Go for it. :-)
