I've seen cscope, and it's a bit clumsier than what I do myself in this
case - I do a 'find' to get a list of the filenames, pipe that into my
directory editor, select all of the files (or the .c & .h files) and grep
for the specific words piped into vile (vi-like-emacs) - then walk through the
changes in the editor).

(sounds like a lot, but it's faster to type than to explain ;-)
