I don't know how to do this except by using perl, which is not part of 
the base system.  This is because DEPORIGIN is on the next line.  And I 
am not expert at any tools except C and perl.  Also I doubt that it will 
speed things up very much - I think that grepping a bunch of files is 
quite fast (compared to say invoking make which is very slow).
