     Looks to me like Apple's fault (some old version of ctags).  On
Linux (not especially up to date):

$ ctags --version
Exuberant Ctags 5.5.2, Copyright (C) 1996-2003 Darren Hiebert
  Compiled: Feb 15 2004, 14:59:14
  Addresses: <dhiebert@users.sourceforge.net>, http://ctags.sourceforge.net
  Optional compiled features: +wildcards, +regex

On Tiger:

$ ctags --version
ctags: illegal option -- -
