And the only approach! Never take calculated risks in these matter when
one is dealing with C/C++ programs. One do not for one know what will be
the future usage of the program. I mean next version of it etc...

Always use flawfinder (http://www.dwheeler.com/flawfinder/) one the
C/C++ code you are packaging to see what reports it gives. File the
report as a bug upstream. I think this should be the practice of Debian,
but apparently it isn't.

C/C++ code is the biggest security problem at the moment.
