tags patch

I made a patch for glossary.texi, inspired by this thread:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-09/msg00020.html

This patch "hyperlinks directly to an explanation of the term in
question, rather than just saying "which see" or some such English
alternative to q.v.".

I think we forgot to apply this patch -- it looks good to me.  But, of
course, it no longer applies now, two years later.

Could you respin the patch and re-send, and I'll apply it?

I'm not sure whether this patch is useful.  See the discussion starting
at: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-09/msg00048.html

BTW, I've been too busy these days, so I'll close this bug for now.

Thank you.
