The Gnu id-utils (gid) allows you to perform a quick search of the source
base for an identifier. For example, you can use this to get a list of
all the locations where a function or structure or a variable is used.
The GNU id-utils also can search for an identifier approximately (aid).
You cannot use id-utils to get a list of functions calling a function
or functions called by a function.
For more information, refer to the following page:
http://www.gnu.org/software/idutils/manual/idutils.html
I have developed a Vim plugin that integrates id-utils with Vim. You can
download this from http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=251
There is also another Gnu tool called global that helps in browsing
code. For more information about this tool, refer to
http://www.gnu.org/software/global/
