The documented tag file format (pipe format) doesn't store the line
number so it won't let you go to the line anyway.  The undocumented
tagmanager format does, but it is intended to be internal only and
isn't documented.

As to why it doesn't work, did you format the filename right and I'm
not sure if it supports spaces in symbol names.
