When one follows a link from a definition to a reference, it is sometimes
tedious to know in which function the reference is when the function is
large.  ChorusOS, for example, has such large functions.

What may also be useful would be to list the same function name in the list
of references when a func is used more than once.  It may help when a func
is widely use within a single file.
