The custom filetypes that don't use tag_parser also set the parser to TM_PARSER_NONE but don't have any global tags file so the crash doesn't happen for them.

Ok, it didn't make sense that TM_PARSER_NONE worked for custom, but not built-in, but in fact that we are doing something that just luck says doesn't happen to be used for custom filetypes. Presumably if someone made a hand made global tags file for a custom filetype it would crash as well. So yeah it needs to be protected.

So the question goes back to, since the proposed changes are to ctags will upstream accept the changes so we don't have to keep a patch to ctags?
