Yes, I don't think this is a limitation of the library so much as some
of the tooling classes expect a compilation database specified as a
command-line argument.  While preparing for my C++ Now! 2014
presentation, I discovered that even in this case it may be possible
to specify the actual compile command on the command-line to the tool
and separate it from other arguments with --.  However, this depends
on specific support for this from the tool and not every tool may
support this (although if they immitated remove-cstr-calls, then they
would have it).
