What is lwlib good for?
I receive every day messages like
<<
Starting a new list of tags tables
visit-tags-table-buffer: File /gnu/lwlib/TAGS is not a valid tags table
>>
when I find a symbol from emacs. I made the TAGS and TAGS-LISP files using make tags...
Why do you not take it out if it is not useful?

Can you debug what is invalid about it?
That's the crucial thing for debugging this.

OK, I will debug and try to make a patch.

I always work with 2 soft-links to TAGS and TAGS-LISP
ln -s src/TAGS .
in my TAGS file there is the line
../lwlib//TAGS,include
Maybe the error is due to the current-directory?
I haven't worked in the meantime with tags. But now I suppose this.
If in TAGS there were the complete path, not a relative path, I believe that it work.
More, if I use visit-tags-table to TAGS that is a SoftLink, and I make find-tag xaw_update_scrollbar from lwlib, the message is
byte-code: No tags containing xaw_update_scrollbar
I am almost sure (even I did not work with find-tags in the meantime) that the reported bug is due to the relative path used in the TAGS file.
