According to this method, it seems that there is no problem.

We can find the tail of <kind name> by tracing from <file name>.
(<line number> does not include a blank.)

                             v<-----------------
        <tag name> <kind name>  <line number>  <file name> ...

We can also find the head of <kind name>. It's easy.
(<tag name> does not include a blanks.)

        ---------->v
        <tag name> <kind name>  <line number>  <file name> ...

What exists between them is <kind name>.

        ----------><kind name><-----------------

Although we cannot deny that there is useless cost, it is
not so serious. How about discussing about it in the
optimization phase? It had not determined yet whether we use
<kind name> or not.
