*Not this at all.* The core reporting functions just show where the notice
is thrown from, not the line of code which called it. You should really use
a plugin such as Debug Bar and Log Deprecated Notices to know where such
items are coming from.

Back to the original question, It's usually Themes which use get_settings()
(I believe this is simply due to the number of theming tutorials out there
which reference it), Plugins in general are a bit more with the times.
