ctags seemed to have some support for $ in identifiers, like it would index $BAR from
#define $BAR
but not$name
fromextern int $name;
. Similarly it wouldn't let me define replacement macros e.g.,'-D$my$struct=struct
and then have foo from$my$struct foo
indexed. This minipatch appears to fix these issues.
