Hello, The comment in configure.in says "Exuberant ctags is preferred", but it doesn't check exctags command. On some systems, the binary of Exuberant ctags is default to exctags, such as my NetBSD, while ctags is the default ctags shipped with the operating system; so we also need to check exctags.
