You are right. We are planning the followings:

[http://www.gnu.org/software/global/plans.html]
* Pickup definitions of data type, enum name, enum value,
  struct member name, union name and struct name in C language.
  Finally, remove GSYMS. (gtags-parser, gtags)

Since the current parser is spaghetti, I feel the necessity of rewriting it.
