I am all in favor of this provided that the tool is sophisticated
enough to generate a log file of what it renamed, and that you can
specifiy how you want something to be renamed.  Of course it must also
handle code such as:

int more;

int main (int argc, char **argv);
{
   int more = 1;
   
   if (more)
     {
        int more = 2;
        int Lynx_More = 3;
          .
          .
     }
     .
     .
}
