Upon :UpdateTags in vim type files I get this. No wonder why:

Is this plugin being maintained? There hasn't been any response for quite some time.

I managed to fix this. The problem was caused on OSX >= 10.5. There's a bug which causes applications to source your custom $PATH from .bash_profile (or other files) first, and the the system $PATH gets source afterwards. See this link for info and a solution.
