The "issue" is just that if you have a file which contains a line like: include ../foo and you access the file through a symlink from a different directory, then ../foo (probably) does not exist. The solution is just to not access the TAGS file through a symlink (something which there is no need to do). Or put the absolute path in the TAGS file (which is then fragile if you want to move the sources somewhere else). That means changing the TAGS target in src/Makefile to specify an absolute path to lwlib rather than a relative one. No point, IMO. For some reason, this has turned back into Alin's previous "lwlib" thread, but now disguised as a partial-completion issue.
