For everyone who investigates this bug - the erlang ctags parser is very primitive and distinguishes function definitions only based on indentation in code such as:

tot_print(ToT) ->
  tot_print(1, ToT).
tot_print(Y, ToT) when Y =< size(ToT) ->
  tot_print_tuple(element(Y, ToT)),
  io:fwrite("~n"),
  tot_print(Y+1, ToT);
tot_print(Y, ToT) -> ok.
tot_print_tuple(T) ->
  tot_print_tuple(1, T).
tot_print_tuple(X, T) when X =< size(T) ->
  io:fwrite("~s", [[element(X, T)]]),
  tot_print_tuple(X+1, T);
tot_print_tuple(X, T) -> ok.

So for the ctags parser, definitions are those lines without any indentation. I think proper fix would require rewriting the whole parser to something better.
