Yes, etags uses the xref-frontend now.

It's a bit like etags, but it can jump also to the references.
After further investigation, it seems, that there are 2 problems:
- there is a bug that prevents global from finding enumeration values¹
- finding definitions of variables is not yet implemented²
ctags does not have theses problems, but it cannot find references³.
This is just bad luck and it has nothing to do with emacs...
