Re-create wildignore options file if missing When the wildignore options file is a temp file it can be deleted by other processes which clean up temp files, so check the file is readable and re-create if necessary before adding it to the list of files from which to read exclusion patterns (-x option for update_tags scripts). Without this Gutentags sometimes gets stuck in a rut reporting ctags job failed, probably because I use both GUI vim and terminal vim, but might not use the GUI for days and when I return to it the temp file is gone.
