For trackerd:
index_file in tracker-db.c is probably what you are after - check to see
if there is a corresponding hidden ".xmp" for any file being indexed and
if so extract any metadata in it into the hashtable. 

For tracker-extract:
For extracting embedded xmp look at tracker-extract.c and add generic
XMP stuff there and then modify any of the extract related files to
include it where necessary


If you need any more help then just shout.

jamie.
