Glad that you now have a working solution for you, but just for the
record (and for future searchers), although the acts_as_xapian project
seems to have been unmaintained since July, there are two other active
projects building Ruby wrappers on top of Xapian: xapit (http://
github.com/ryanb/xapit/blob/master/README.rdoc) and xapian-fu (http://
github.com/johnl/xapian-fu).  We maintain a listing of current
wrappers in the Xapian wiki at http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/FAQ/RubyWrappers

I don't know why acts_as_xapian was having problems giving you
spelling corrections in a useful way: Xapian's interface returns the
suggested spell-corrected query, which seemed to be what you wanted,
so I don't know why acts_as_xapian wasn't doing this.
