yes, name them after the first symbol that appears on them. like unlabeled-1.2.4 being named __KDE_3_5_RELEASE because of such tag (without the underscores, obviously) appearing on it. the naive per-file implementation doesn't get you that far, though. again, one'd have to collect data from all files first, correlate it and make a "majority vote". very similar to your favorite symbol source problem. ;)
