Lu,
This is not particularly easy to do programmatically. I've filed a bug
at https://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/issues/detail?id=834. Perhaps
someone from the community can submit a patch.

Hi there,
in my latest version of ODK validate (V. 1.2.3 for ODK Collect 1.2), variables inside constraint= and relevant= and calculate= clauses are not checked for existence. Is there a version of Validate coming out soon that does this work? It is rather time consuming to go through every relevant= clause and check that all the variables have been spelt correctly.
Best,
Lu

Yes, Validate began as a quick-and-dirty tool that confirms that the form
definition file can be parsed.
A second pass was added to verify that all select-one and select-multiple
question choices had values, but little else is done to verify the validity
of the expressions.
Checking that the variable exists would be a useful addition. The reason it
isn't detected is because these are treated as opaque XPath expressions,
and no check is made to ensure that they reference an element within the
form definition (no-value and does-not-exist are not distinguished).
