I discovered this, too.
I also noticed that there are some defined names with no source file
('cause they're not defined by Clojure code.) Those must be suppressed
from the generated tags index.

My code, doubtlessly more naive and immature than your own, requires the
invocation to specify a tags-file name and a source directory in
addition to a collection of namespace names to index. It then
constructs absolute path names to use in the tags file. That still
doesn't not accommodate any attempt to index a set of namespaces that
do not all reside in the same directory, which, e.g., characterizes
Clojure Contrib.
I think it's probably desirable to, in general, include multiple
namespaces in a single tags file.
And don't forget that the tags file must be sorted in simple
lexicographic order, which does not seem to be what you get if you just
dump symbol names into a sorted set or map. (So far, I've just been
sorting the files afterward from the command line using the Gnu "sort"
utility with the environment variable LC_ALL set to "C".)
