If you're actually running the code, you could take a copy (or a
subset for specific lubnames) of sashelp.vtable before and after the
run, then compare results.

If you're trying to use this as some form of static code analyser,
then you've got a fair job on, as you'll be having to write your own
code parser. Good luck!
