           Summary: etags fails on cygwin: argument list too long
           Product: Build scripts
           Version: cvs
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: Makefiles
        AssignedTo: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: rspencer at x10sys.com


When I build on cygwin, the *only* thing that fails is the etags command:

usr/bin/etags -l c++ 
`find /home/rspencer/work/llvm/llvm//include /home/rspencer/work/llvm/llvm//lib 
/home/rspencer/work/ll
m/llvm//tools -name '*.cpp' -o -name '*.h'`
usr/bin/etags: argument list too long
ake: *** [tags] Error 2

I checked the etags manual page but there didn't seem to be a way to specify 
that the list of files to be searched should be read from some other file. If 
ther was, I would have fixed this myself. Perhaps we need to use the updating 
facility and do this one subdirectory of lib at a time?
