Unf vim cscope doesn't support that. Moreover, I bet if size was accessed
via pointer, you couldn't search it that way either. In general, all 
enterprise software I've worked on prohibited such generic names for 
the reason people couldn't easily find their usages. I find it very 
frustrating, and I hope I can continue to be able to read xen code.
