Do you consider normal that M-. <find-tag>

jumps in order to the following definitions (of function or variable) using C-u as prefix :

find-tag-hook
find-tag-default-function

but not to... find-tag?

I opened TAGS file, and <find-tag> was not there.

Still I had created the TAGS by

find -name *.[ch] -o -name *.el | xargs etags -

1. The first problem is in etags.
2. The second "problem": Why M-. <name> does not jump first of all to all defun or defvar which are called EXACTLY <name>, and after there are no more such ones, to jump to the non-exact regexp matching.
