Hi - It looks like there has been no movement on this bug for a month.
What is the best way to contact the emacs maintainers?  It does not seem
correct for emacs (or xemacs) to overwrite the ctags executable.

 Is there an especially good reason xemacs-tags can't depend on ctags, and
 get its ctags.exe from my package?

 Or, is there something special about Xemacs ctags that's worth
 preserving?

 Or, maybe ctags.exe should just be removed from the Xemacs package.
 Doesn't Emacs want you to use etags anyway?
