I don't know of any easy way to do that.  It requires software to
analyze the code and deduce how it will function.

However, to determine automatically _some_ value of `lexical-binding'
that will fowk in that file is easy: use nil.

In many cases, t would work too, but determining whether it would
calls for some intelligence.
