It seems that the chrome developers should be able to perform the same binary analysis on the suspect Mcafee software. I guess it's a bit harder without source code to reference side-by-side though.
That would be possible, but we'd have to install the software, then guess which binary was the culprit, and then have some way of finding the function boundaries. My crude analysis technique required on having symbols for chrome.dll to indicate where functions started, so I'd have to have switched tools to something else that could find those.
