Great!

This one is because a .cxx file was processed directly. The 
workdir/GbuildToJson/Library/dbulo.dll does contain 
dbaccess/source/shared/dbu_reghelper in its CXXOBJECTS, but no entry for 
dbaccess/source/shared/registrationhelper. So extracting this 
information seems helpful, too, to reduce false positives (OTOH I wonder 
what this inclusion technique is useful here for.)
