ctags inclued in emacs-21.4 does not have this bug. This bug was introduced by etags-14.21-17.11-diff.patch. A patch was posted to emacs-pretest-bug about 1 week ago. But emacs people seem to have no interest in this. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug/2005-11/msg00063.html
This bug was fixed in upstream etags. http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/emacs/emacs/lib-src/etags.c.diff? r1=3.49&r2=3.50&sortby=date
Ok, thanks for the report. Updating to latest etags.c in next build.
Updating to latest etags.c code in next devel build. Should be in emacs-21.4-9.
Fix should be in FC5.
