Hello Shane

I'm with Simon, this is very interesting stuff!

I'm wondering if we could make use of your data to figure out what headers we 
should precompile. You said you extract a graph from the build: is there a way 
to parse that graph to produce a list of headers most commonly included in a 
given module?

We've had precompilation support in qmake for a decade, but apparently we use 
that in exactly 3 modules...
