I presume it's variables starting with an uppercase letter. You can
make a kbd macro for this. C-x ( starts recording, C-x ) ends
recording. In the macro, search for $ followed by an uppercase
letter. Then move point to after the $, then insert "global_array(",
then use M-f or C-M-f to skip forward over the variable name, then
insert the closing parenthesis.
Kbd macros are your friends.
