That would give you the equivalent of `source-file', but using `symbol-file'. It's probably not that different in the end. Although the generalization to built-in variables is more obvious. That would work. Searching for a DEFUN line would finish the job. My patch (see below) simply relies on having TAGS built in the source directory. That is distinctly not as good.
