VIm only for now, since I don't know if emacs tags format supports

reports welcome.
This program generates a tag for each reference to a symbol:
Derive.PitchDeriver Derive/Derive.hs 98;" file:Cmd/Cmd.hs
Derive.PitchDeriver Derive/Derive.hs 98;" file:Cmd/Play.hs
Derive.PitchDeriver Derive/Derive.hs 98;"
file:Cmd/ResponderSync.hs
... [ 20 more ] ...
The vim tag documentation says these are "static" tags, and implies
they are meant to apply to symbols only valid within the same file,
but this is clearly not the case. Actually, the vim doc implies that
only "file:" is defined, and doesn't talk about "scoped tags" so I'm
not sure what is going on. Anyway, whenever I go to a tag I have to
first step through a message that says "1 of 25" or so. There's one
for each reference in the tags file, even though those are references
in other files.
What's going on? I even checked the current docs at vim.org and they
don't mention a file:xyz form either.
As far as I know, there is nothing like "file:xyz" only "file:". This is
to support static tags which I would not call "scoped tags" because they
know only one scope: the file scope. Between, ghci can generate tags
file for you with static tags too in ghc 6.12.1. The ticket which
discusses this feature and also discusses emacs support for static tags
is here:
