Summary: Failure checking of ectags broken

Initial Comment:
In Generic.pm exuberant-ctags is opened as a pipe with
open().
The the return value of open is checked, but this only
checks if
the fork creating the process was successful. If there
is no
ectags installed or if the invocation went wong no
sensible
error message is displayed. The return value of the
process
should be checked more carefully.
