Agreed. It's one of the items on my wishlist to allow explicit customisation of the path to ctags (in case multiple versions are installed), but I haven't done this yet. Do you have exuberant ctags installed? If so, where is it in the path? If rearranging the path is an option, then I'd suggest that. Otherwise, I'll try to get that fix done as soon as I can.
