--text follows this line--
To reproduce:

 emacs -Q
 C-x C-f test/etags/cp-src/c.C RET
 C-s ~A

This should land you on line 118 of c.C, which says:

struct A {
    ~A();  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< line 118
};

Now, with point on "A" in "~A", type "M-." and when Emacs prompts for
TAGS table, direct it to use test/etags/ETAGS.good_1.  The result is
that you are presented with a 17-line *xref* buffer showing the
possible candidates, but it is clear that xref thought you wanted to
find the symbol "A".

Now switch back to the buffer visiting c.C and type:

 C-u M-. ~A RET

Result: you are immediately placed on the line of c.C that defines the
destructor for class A.  IOW, the tags table is OK, it's xref that
didn't understand that when point is on "~A", you want ~A, not A.

You're welcome to suggest a better implementation for 
xref-default-identifier-at-point (keep in mind that it should be 
language-agnostic), but while it uses (thing-at-point 'symbol), maybe 
c++-mode should propertize ~ in those positions to have syntax class 
"symbol".

Normally it's performed with a syntax-propertize-function, but c++-mode 
doesn't have it.

My point was precisely that xref is not smart enough when it picks the
symbol.  If we need some languages to help it, we should make sure all
supported languages provide that.  It's no use asking etags for better
precision when xref cannot pick up the right symbol.

Well, perhaps it should.

Right, and we usually try to make it so that in every language the 
notion of symbol makes sense.

Indeed, but I'm not holding my breath.

Alternatively, c++-mode can define a specialized
find-tag-default-function that would include the tilde when it comes at
the beginning of a symbol.
