Thanks Andreas, I am really not good at that, but I do not think the
documentation below explains why it is going to "BEGV_BYTE" when I
asked for "begv_byte", or?
There must be some other part of the documentation that explains that,
or? Did I somehow ask for a case insensitive tag file? But etags
surely know that C is case sensitive, or?
(The doc string below helps me practically however.)
