Re: make_ctags script

Slightly off topic: While going through the current source, comparing
to Mariposa, I've seen little traces of old code: some ideas seem to
have been reinvented and reimplemented a number of times. Going back
and digging into Postgres95, and the last postquel based release,
postgres-v4r2, to see how they were implemented, it's been fun seeing
"debate/design by comment block" from some of the original university
developers. In particular, one block with a 12 line NOOOOOO! in
backend/commands/version.c had me rolling on the floor. Ah, I see it lives
on in _deadcode. In general, the functional comments in the current code
are more informative, but not as much fun ;-)

What I have realized is how superior some of our code is to the old
stuff.
