I _might_ be able to find some time to fix that, given how important it
has become for me, but before doing that I'll try to ask some Xapian
expert friend whether he is confident or not that is the issue. In the
meantime, can you please keep upstream posted about this investigations
of hours? Maybe it will make him enthusiastic about the fix and actually
do that before us ;-)
Thanks for your feedback.
