Something like this...?

(font-lock-add-keywords emacs-lisp-mode
(eval-when-compile
   '(("\\_<\\(?:\\s_\\|\\sw\\)+\\_>"
      (0 (let ((symbol (intern (match-string 0))))
           (cond
            ((macrop symbol) 'font-lock-macro-name-face)
            ((fboundp symbol) 'font-lock-function-name-face)
            ((or (boundp symbol) (facep symbol))
             'font-lock-variable-name-face))))))))

(font-lock-macro-name-face is a face defined by me.)

Let me know when you make any progress.  I'm very interested. :)
