Thanks.

Here is what I'm adding:

    ## Support `Global' tags.
    GTAGS:
	    here=`cd $(top_builddir) && pwd` && cd $(top_srcdir) && gtags -i $$here

>> By the way, where does automake put tag files to?

It puts them in the build directory.
This might be the same as the source directory, if the user chose to
configure in the source tree.
