I've got a $HOME/.ctags file from exuberant-tags, but universal-tags doesn't seem to be picking up my options from it. Does universal-tags support these config files?

Exuberant ctags is a lightweight utility that generates an index (called a "tag file") of language objects in source code for a variety of different languages including C/C++, C#, HTML, Java, JavaScript, Lua, MATLAB, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, VHDL, and many more.
To install Exuberant Ctags: Go to the following website and download the latest package labeled Source and binary for Windows: http://ctags.sourceforge.net. If the latest binary package is not available for download, go to the Download section and download the binary package for the previous version of Ctags.
Exuberant Ctags is a multilanguage reimplementation of the Unix ctags utility.
ctags creates a file named tags in the current directory. It summarizes the locations of various objects in the C source files named on the command line. All files with a . c or . h suffix are treated as C source files.
See this documentation for details. The quick answer is:
mkdir $HOME/.ctags.d
mv $HOME/.ctags $HOME/.ctags.d/default.ctags
As an added bonus, you can now add comments to the file.
