Quick and dirty:

     grep -r '^sub foo' src/


If this is a function call, look at the use lines -- the function has 
probably been
exported from one of modules this code calls import on.

If this is a method call, walk @ISA; the good news is that you can do this
programmatically.

If this is tricky code that uses AUTOLOAD, you're in for some quality
time with yout tracer hat.
