OK. I finally understand this thread!!!
It's my fault, it's my own fault. Shame on me...
I was wondering why people doesn't use the ctags bundled with the vim RPM.
I guess this is because *I* didn't included ctags in the RPM.
I'm going to fix this right now.

It's a POSIX compatibility fix. The ctags bundled with vim is 3.4, which
fixes some bugs. The standalone version of ctags is 3.2 and should be updated
or deprecated. Chmouel, what do you think ?
Should we remove Ctags-3.2 from cooker or should I make a standalone 3.4
version ?
Sorry for this.
