Based on the number of patches hitting tags/cscope support at the moment it is becoming obvious that this have to live outside the top-level Makefile. So any improvements in this area has to start with ripping it all out of the top-level Makefile and add it to a shell script in scripts/tags.sh (or similar). If no-one betas me I will do so when I start to look into non-bugfixes for kbuild. So I will not take your patch right now. Not because it is wrong, but simple to avoid changes to the top-level Makefile when this must happen in a shell script. Sam
