Examples are gmock's MOCK_METHODn, and IFACEMETHOD and COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY from the Windows SDK. Maybe this shouldn't warn if the method it warns on comes from a macro expansion? Or, if you think that that would hide too many issues (it did find a few cases where I could just add "override" to a macro, in my experience), maybe at least if the macro that's expanded is from a system header?
