The patch drops support for "-n" option :-<
Attached is the patch by fixing make_ctags (make_etags is not
touched).
If Exuberant-type ctags is available, use it (not changed).
If Exuberant-type ctags is not available, try old ctags (not changed).
If the old ctags does not support "-e" option, try etags (new).
If etags is not available, give up (new).
Best reagards,
