It does not.

I repeat.

I use a LINK to TAGS file from src/TAGS.

More precisely, look ls -al in ./emacs directory

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      8 2007-04-18 05:56 TAGS -> src/TAGS
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     13 2007-04-18 05:56 TAGS-LISP -> src/TAGS-LISP

I do so:

M-. re-fr-st <TAB> insert here the path to TAGS file FROM EMACS DIRECTORY, NOT 
FROM ./EMACS/SRC.

In this case it does not work.

If I complete the path to the TAGS file from ./emacs/src/TAGS , it works.

So the only problem is that etags does not work if we work to a sym-link to the 
TAGS file. We must use the path to the original TAGS file. This is the but. 
This is the same bug as that one reported by me here:

<<lwlib>>.
