I'm worried that CVS HEAD doesn't actually fix the problem, it just
makes it less likely to pop up.  Mind you, that's still an improvement.

The "per-process errno rather than per-thread" fits the facts well.
But even if it's close, it's not quite that simple - if I modify your
example so I just watch errno, it doesn't change.  Perhaps the way
Xapian is compiled makes a difference?  Or that it's a shared library?

Not sure.  I'd like to make sure everything is fixed, but I've got some
paid work to do right now, and I'm away all of next month.  Unless that
work takes longer than expected, I should be able to at least fit in a
release before I go.

Cheers,
