I think you can remove some options, for example

ctags -R  --fields=+S  /usr/include


from ctags manual: http://ctags.sourceforge.net/ctags.html

"--extra=+q, --fields=+ia" is used to extract information about Class and
Inheritance, which is useful for Object-Oriented programming languages like
C++. For C, you don't need these.
