Yes, you are right, I've just tried and the circular dependency is no problem. 
Still I prefer to think of tag manager as just one specific part of geany and 
not a separate library so I kept the patch. But I have no problem to remove it 
if others disagree.

It's basically completely Geany-specific. It was originally based on this

https://sourceforge.net/projects/tagmanager/

which got abandoned 14 years ago, then picked and modified by Anjuta, then the 
Anjuta version got picked and modified by Geany (Anjuta dropped tagmanager in 
the meantime) and then heavily modified by me in the past years. So while the 
overall logic of maintaining tags is similar to the original one, the sources 
are very different. There's no living upstream version of what we have in Geany.
